walterlTrapa, have you received your registration certificate ? I am French, my husband is Bulgarian, and we want to apply for the EEA1, but we don't know how long it takes when you send the documents. We tried to book an appointment online for the Croydon office and they say there are no appointme...

I cannot find what telephone number I was using. Sorry. I found the number in this forum (a cheaper one). If you cannot find it, try to send an email to LiverpoolEuro.PassportReturns@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk Try to explain your situation and ask why it is taking a long time as it should be resolved in ...

Good Luck!!

Well. The most big problem you are going to have is they really don't know a thing. They are two different ways. BR1 and EEA1. Tee first one is a little tricky and it is going to take 6 month (and I am not joking, they are managing December application right now). The BR1 says the EEA member has to ...

Finally I can say the Registration Certificates have arrived!!.

My girlfriend now is free to Work!!!


Thank you every body who has supported us.

hey i thought i was alone. i am in same situation. i am Bulgarian and my girlfriend is Lithuanian .. living together for 7 years. more than two years in UK. i didnt know which form to fill now i see u tried and it is not easy.. can u tell what are u planning to do now After millions of calls and ma...

At the end I call to Liverpool to ask about my papers. They said the cannot ask for my paper to Sheffield. They suggested to call to Sheffield and ask them to return my papers to Liverpool. When I call to Sheffield they told me they cannot give me info about my application because they need to talk ...

Any new as far.

I think I am going to wait one hour more and if the woman doesn't call again, I will star calling to Livelpool again

Horrible!

Nothing, I sent the email at 15:15 on Friday.

Tomorrow I will try to contact again with her. I don´t have her number.

Thank you very much for the references

I will do the complain. I am still waiting for the answer of a lovely woman who called me to explain me the situation yesterday. May be she can do anything to fix it as soon as possible.

Okei.. After calling to Sheffield again they ask why an EEA1 Application has been sent to them.

They say they can not handle them. They suggest to talk with LiverPool again and tell them they have to request the papers again.

OMG!!!

CoA is normally only issued to a non EEA national while their application is being considered. EEA national just get the Registration Certificate as soon as possible. As the partner is A2 national, she should get a Registration Certificate as soon as the HO examine their durable relationship. Compl...

An unmarried partner COA will not allow her to work, then I guess the urgency is not so high. But not matter what UKBA should issue the COA immediately. I would suggest you complain here: http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/aboutus/contact/makingacomplaint/ Point out that by law they are required to ...

I am applying for EEA1 and added my girlfriend as unmarried partner.
I don't need anything as I am Spanish but my girlfriend needs whatever document telling she is allowed to work in UK.

Thank you.

Regards,

They are required to issue the COA immediately. Do you need the COA for anything? I need the COA for my girlfriend (unmarried partner) After taking with people from LiverlPool and Sheffield they say my papers are in Sheffield and I have to wait now 4 month because my girlfriend is A2(Bulgarian) I a...

After calling to Liverpool million of times and then with speaking with Sheffield, they said our package should be going to Sheffield and we can not do anything more, only wait for 3-4 Months. No Registration certificate for me and no COA until everything is resolved. And I thought I was in the last...

I think Liverpool has cleaned their hands sending it to Sheffield although the application is EEA1 and I am EU Citizen.. :( I called to Sheffield and they don't know anything about my application. :( at least not in their computers. The worst is coming. I think this application is going to be delaye...

Omg!!..

A new answer from <LiverpoolEuro.PassportReturns@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk>

"Your application is not with our department. It is in Sheffield. Therefore, I have forwarded your email to that department."

What? Why? I don't understand anything.

Any clue?

After asking me in one mail for my Royal Mail Track number and for my DOB in another mail (10 min between them)... They never answer again.... hahahaha I am laughing because I am a happy person and I don't want to cry XD

We will see what happen tomorrow....

I did something stupid. I used (I think) an old email address: LiverpoolEuro.PassportReturns@ homeoffice .gsi.gov.uk instead of: LiverpoolEuro.PassportReturns@ ukba .gsi.gov.uk In the first one no one answer, in the second one after 5 min of my first mail I received my first answer. (still they are...

I agree that the statement by the telephonist is far from accurate. The Registration Certificate issued to EU citizens should be issued immediately. Well. I call again to 0151 672 5626 ( Opt1, then 2) and after waiting for 20 minutes the telephonist told me again they can not check anything because...

You could try a letter (post it recorded delivery). Your residence certificate at least must be issued inmediatamente! We called them, but their immediately answer was "we can not help you because your application wasn't made 6 month ago, you have to wait until that before we can help you"...

HO hasn't answer to my email yet...

May be I said something strange in the email..

Anyone know how to answer for the application status?

Any key word or something... May be the email filter is dropping my email.

Thank you.
