Good Day To All, I thought I'd post a follow-up to my EEA Family Permit Entry Clearance (EEA FP EC) problem. I'll dispense with the suspense and will say that I have been successful in obtaining a second EEA FP EC. Now I will explain how I went about. Please bear in mind this may not be the best way...
