Logically the birth certificate would have been issued from the country of birth. If a child is born in a country of which neither parent is national or resident the most practical thing would be to contact the relevant embassy which represents a country of which one/both of the parents are national...

Timing and Life in the UK test

Hi,

Is there a time limit to take the test Life in the UK?
For example does an applicant need to apply 3 or 6 months and not earlier than that, before they apply for BC?
Is it possible to take the test a couple of months after PR or does it have to be nearer the date of applying for BC?

You should not be worried about deportation. If you are refused PR, they would not deport you. Even if you are refused for not exercising treaty rights, you still have free movement and no one will deport you. I might be wrong but I think that an EU citizen and their family members can only be depor...

nonspecifics, my interpretation of the transitional arrangements is the same, that the exemption from CSI covers the period of study, only. Anne-Marie, there should not be a problem with the CSI for the study period, the issued student certificate is a proof that at the time of issue you satisfied t...

Were you issued a student certificate by UKBA when you commenced your studies?

Did you have CSI for that period?

Were you exercising treaty rights in the UK, in another capacity, before starting your course?

Replies: 9

EHIC has to be issued outside of the UK, as stated on the EUROPA website. The logic is that the student is covered for medical expenses by their home country and they need (in theory) to show the card every time they visit a doctor. I think that they accept EHIC cards, I don't think that people are ...

Try to exclude your student status if possible unless you have had CSI. You seem to have resided long enough to qualify without it and I am just saying that it might complicate things.

Just to answer your private message question, again being charged is completely different from being cautioned.

The question asks you to disclose if you have been charged with an offence, not if you have been charged or cautioned.

So I do not think you need to disclose it.

Caution is not the same as being charged with an offence. Caution is verbal warning given by the police to the offender/wrongdoing party. Being charged with an offence is where the prosecution formally charges you with the wrong that you have done. If you have been charged, you will go to court, hav...

s_anda, The fact that your daughter is disabled does not make you incapacitated as one might say that you could have made some arrangements and continued working. Obviously, it was not possible to do but I am saying there is this argument too. Could you not claim that you were unemployed? I remember...

s_anda, my interpretation of the EEA Regulations 2006 on ceasing to exercising treaty rights is that the applicant is prevented to exercise rights because of incapacity or being redundant. Again this is my interpretation, I might be wrong here. Claiming to be self-sufficient would not lead you where...

Claiming to be self-sufficient is not a good idea because then UKBA will refuse PR for not having CSI. The exception for not having CSI is only applicable to A2 students that had student cards issued before 20/6/2011. Course A-she was removed from (UKBA knew about this course) Course B-she attended ...

Thanks for the reply. Just to answer your questions. CSI-No, she did not have it, at the time it was not a requirement on the BR1 form. It also was before 20/6/2011 and she did have a student card, so she falls within the transitional requirement/period. Benefit-No, she has never claimed anything. A...

Does anyone have a wild guess, as to when an A2 national may be treated to have stopped exercising treaty rights?

Any opinions/thoughts are appreciated.

If you are a student in the UK, intending to apply for permanent residence and thereafter citizenship you must have comprehensive sickness insurance for the whole period that you have been a student. I think that if you are insured in your home country, you should get an European Health Insurance Ca...

A2 national, PR and (not) exercising treaty rights

My sister is an A2 national. She registered as self-employed in 2007, then in 2008 she switched to being a student on a language course and got a student work permit/card. She was then de-registered for poor attendance. She then enrolled on another language course in mid 2009, finished that and got ...
