I had been reading everything related to opening a bank account in the UK for a while now. Since I wasn’t able to come up with a basic understanding of it, I decided to call directly Barcley’s and the representative I spoke to said this: • An EEA, only needs to show their passport and about £...
thanks Aani. I apologise for getting abit irritated, but I'm a little angry at how difficult it is to do anything in the UK if you're a foreigner trying to settle, even if your spouse and kids are british! Took us 3 months to open a bank account, the banks having all sorts of reasons why we couldnt...
Thanks Directive/2004/38/E that's why you are the guru...By helping stefancamargo you are also helping me, since in a few months I will be going through the same process.
@stefancamargo again, please share here with the rest of us how you application/process went. (once completed)

There are my 2 cents, First of all, salaries in the UK are considerably lower than those in the US. However, check this link for more information: http://www.payscale.com/research/UK/Country=United_Kingdom/Salary Minimum wage: http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Employment/Employees/TheNationalMinimumWage/D...
@keffers , I've found this: http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/howtoapply/infs/inf18eeaswissnationals#22714507 If you read the title Can my family members join me in the UK ? it is pretty much self-explanatory. JIC, let me please share it here: "Your extended family members, such as brothers, sister...
do u know how long does it normally take if i send a postal application?

There are my 2 cents…. Whether you’re living in Italy or Brazil, and according the HO web site, she should apply to obtain a family permit http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/howtoapply/infs/inf18eeaswissnationals#22715004 . This is a clearance to enter the UK; will be valid for 6 months and she’d be...
This is exactly what I did 10 years ago when I landed in the USA. I went to department stores, supermarkets and other places; gracefully talked to locals and in my particular case, it only took less than 3 weeks to fully understand their accent...!
Just for the record, when in your opening post in this topic you say "spouse" you mean your legally married spouse? If yes then you already have Treaty Rights to work, but the problem is proving it. John, why "proving it" is a problem? Wouldn't a marriage certificate be more tha...
.CAN I APPLY FOR MY EEA2 NOW??? Yes, as your wife is now exercising Treaty Rights in the UK you can indeed apply for a Residence Card using form EEA2. No proof of address required. The important aspect here is to prove that your wife is employed. Without that proof you will not get your Residence C...
2) This is an unfortunate confusion and it is unclear what the UKBA actually does. There are reports here that embassies would follow ECB5. Personally, I tend to think that the EUN are correct.[/quote] I agree with you in this particular. The UK embassy in the USA warns of this: "The biometric ...
86ti, Thank you for clarifying! and I am sorry for the link to the private company. However, I am now more confused than what I was before, and I hope you can guide me through the answers. 1) Does a non-EEA national need to have a VFA5 Family Permit to enter the UK to reunite with their EEA family m...
1) You weren't paid off the books, instead you were given a 1099 (Independent contractor ) and therefore you have a tax bill. Contact a tax preparer to solve this matter.
If your husband intends to seek, apply and maybe accept any job upon arrival to the UK, he needs to obtain VFA5 Family Permit BEFORE entering the country. By obtaining the biometric passport, it will only enable him to enter in the UK as a visitor. I've found this: http://www.immigrationboards.com/v...
Dear LAROCCAMON, Sorry for hijacking your thread, we completely understand the situation you all are going thru.....We are in the same boat!
