I don't know whether to laugh or cry! I wonder if the ECM read what he wrote - "you can't make use of the initial 3 months because you are not in the UK". The response is a joke. When is the appeal date? Have received the ECM response bundle. We need to respond before 14 Jan 2013. Will po...

May I suggest you contact the European Policy team in Liverpool and confirm with them your position as your response and the decision made by the ECO reflect a misunderstanding in the basics of EEA regulations. The UKBA EUN guidelines clearly states (EUN2.4 What are the requirements for issuing an ...

I think the OP has 5 options, a number of which can be done in parallel: (1) Appeal. This is being done but could take 3-6 months to resolve. Hope to hear from the First-tier Tribunal after the 27-Nov-12 about the ECM's reply (2) Apply again. No downside except for the time it takes to submit a new...

Was this the response from your email to the BHC or a general complaint to UKBA. This is just ridiculous. It seems that you have no option other than appeal as clearly they are not familiar with EEA regulations. I would reply to this email stating that May I suggest you contact the European Policy ...

Response from UKBA Thank you for your email of 10 November 2012 regarding the refusal of your EEA family permit. You state in your email that the ECO has failed to consider the fact that your sponsor is not residing in the UK at present and therefore does not need to be a qualified person. I have r...

I suggest you chase them up and start the appeal process (sending the form. Paying the fee). As part of the appeal process, before a hearing is set, the post reviews the decision so you might not require the actual hearing but you prepare an appeal. There is already an appeal filed against my 2nd r...

Question: In your new application, did again provide information about jobs you and your spouse were looking at in the UK? Or where you planned to live there? Or where you are presently working? No there was no mention of any job opportunity for both of us or anything about where we plan to live. w...

I whould note that " JH " has refused two of your applications. I would also request that any reconsideration of your application be done by different ECMs not involved with the original decision. All 3 ECO were different JM, JH and AH. surprising all 3 have given the same decision. Could...

No, I think Directive intended to write Regulation 21. As in, only for reasons of public policy, public security and public health can the EEA Family Permit application be refused. It is correct but confusing as written. Regulation 12 refers to regulation 21. I will improve the microwording Can you...

While interacting with VFS staff. they did mention a refusal is very quick, where as a settlement takes about 2-3 months.
