Hi This is to confirm that we have successfully submitted an application at the Greek embassy and due to collect the passport next week. At first, the lady at the counter was totally ignorant about the EEA FP and what this is about! she asked me to provide evidence that my mother is actually depende...
Thank you for your reply. Yes, I am aware that if she applies for a residence card then she can travel visa free if accompanied by her EEA family member. We will apply for a RC at some point but it usually takes around 3 to 4 months if not longer to obtain one. So, at the moment, the only solution i...
I have used the following email address found in a similar thread to this one: EU Commission - Complaints < sg-plaintes@ec.europa.eu > I have also emailed SOLVIT but for some reason they did not get back to me on this occasion (in the past I used Solvit to sort out a different problem to this one). ...
Latest update on my case: FP issued on 31st May. That is after a couple of strong worded emails and copy sent to the EU Commission complaints department...
Thank you all for your much appreciated contribution to this request.
Hi I hope this is the right place to post a question regarding Schengen visa for a non-EEA dependent parent who has travelled to the UK on EEA family permit. I have come across the following statement on the French embassy website: "You must be resident in the UK - i.e holders of ’C-Visit’ visa...

Passport submitted as per embassy's request but we have been told that they must send passport to embassy in Warsaw for visa issue....another bureaucratic mechanism! So I suspect ano...
I must say that my mother has previously been refused an in-country application for a Residency Card, in March last year, so I suspect that perhaps this has got something to do with the delay we are experiencing now with the issue of her FP after appeal.
I had to pay the solicitor GBP450 to submit the bundle of documents at the appeal stage. I have a receipt for that. We did not hire anyone to represent us on the day of the hearing, which means that I had to write my own witness statement and submit the bundle of additional evidence which I could ga...
Hi there, and thanks for your reply. Forgot to mention that we have actually emailed the Tribunal Service to confirm if the Respondent (HO) has appealed the decision, and they have confirmed to us that the HO did not appeal, they had 28 days to appeal. This confirmation was received on the 26th Marc...
We have been waiting for about 13 weeks since being notified that our appeal was successful, and still waiting!!! Have emailed the visa section where the application was submitted and have not had any reply so far! I called them few times and have been told to wait... Just asking myself: How much lo...

Application was refused. An appeal was submitted in Aug 2011. 2. The hearing took place on the 1st Fe...
