Richmond332,

You said you are applying as self sufficient as well. If you haven't heard from them hopefully yours didnt get sent back like mine as I sent it a few days after you.

Are you applying on the same basis as us ie it is the non EEA who is working?

Thank you very much for your reply. What you say makes sense, and even the HO officer I spoke to on the phone today said that yes even if the funds come from me that is ok, and it is also stated on the EEA forms that the funds can come from their family members. Perhaps our application wasn't clear ...

We submitted as self sufficient, and I included details of my employment which are the funds to maintain ourselves. HO sent the application back to us saying insufficient documentation. I called them today and they said to explain in a covering letter!

I have created a new topic as this is a different question. I have checked that I have the 06/2011 versions. My husband is the EEA national and we are applying on the self sufficient category based on my employment. I know I am probably being really silly but I feel that the form is not quite right....

We have been maintaining separate bank accounts. Is it sufficient for our cover letter to say that the funds from my employment and my savings will be used to maintain us?

We were thinking to submit bank statements that are in my name. Is this not possible? As I understand, the funds for the self sufficient person can come from his family members?

Please can someone who has successfully applied via self sufficiency respond to us. We will now submit the following: 1. bank statements for prior 6 months showing sufficient savings, and my salary from current employment. 2. my payslips and employment letter (only been working for 2 months) 3. priv...

Hello, It is not a rejection letter, you are right, the letter states that they require more information. I'm going to read the link you sent. Thank you. Please if you don't mind, what is the difference between the insurance certificate and the policy document? I have given them the letter from AVIV...

Sorry I was not clear. My husband is self sufficient - the funds are coming from my bank statement and my employment. The bank statements - I went to the bank today to get statements for 6 months. It has the bank logo but is printed black and white. Is this a problem or will they accept this? Do the...

Hello all, I had happily submitted our documents (husband is EEA national) on 26/09 and was waiting everyday to get a CoA. However, today we received a rejection letter stating that additional evidence is required for our self sufficient status: 1. bank statements for the last six months 2. private ...

Hello all you knowledgeable ones, First I have to say thank you for this forum and all the helpful answers I have found here. I'm glad to say that we have submitted our EEA1 and EEA2 very recently (confirmed royal mail delivery a week ago). We are keeping fingers crossed that all goes well. My EU na...

I would really like some comment on the comprehensive medical insurance from those who have received their EEA2 and EEA residence cards. Please could you tell me which insurance company you used and the exact policy you bought? I would be really happy if someone could specify what they have purchase...

I am currently waiting for my EEA family permit to travel to the UK together with my husband to live and find a job. We have been living in an EEA country for 1.5 years as a married couple. Keeping my fingers crossed, I am already looking at paperwork needed for the EEA2 for the next step. Please if...

I am non EU but do not require a visitor's visa to the UK. I think now we are leaning towards getting the EEA...

Hello, I hope someone can help me out here. My husband and I are researching the best and correct method of returning to the UK. My husband is a Greek and British citizen and we both live in Greece now. I am thinking of applying for the spouse visa as this would enable us to skip the treaty rights (...

Hello, I have found all the information on this forum here very interesting however my husband and I have a slightly more complicated issue at hand. I would be glad for anyone's comments. My husband is both a British citizen and an EEA national here in Greece. We have been married for about 1.5 year...
