Euroguys, thank you for the info. Can you update us when you receive a reply from them and also if and when they return the documents? I am also in a similar situation, self employed in Ireland since feb 13 and will be returning to the UK soon. We also want to travel shortly after applying so I woul...
Eea1/eea2 timeline(married - employed full time) Application sent on 15/11 Received from HO on 18/11 Payment on 19/11 Confirmation received 23/11 COA with right to work on 6/12, dated 4/12 RC Received on 07/01/2014 Happy days, good luck to everyone! :D :D :D Thats quite fast! Congrats. What nationa...
Sorry its me again! I finally figured it out! On the form, the question mark explains what the different drop down options are. One says European nationals, which as a NON-EU national you would not choose. BUT under the description it says: European nationals - This category is for all applications ...
It says here - http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/documents/policyandlaw/ecis/chapter10?view=Binary Basically, they say; 1.6 Applications should not be treated as withdrawn unless the applicant or agent has categorically stated that they no longer wish to pursue it. But as you say in the ...
Oh thats great. How quickly would you say it usually comes? We are planning to travel so we were going to apply once we return. Can we apply once we reach and if we ask for his passport to travel will the application be withdrawn?
I know it would be, we are going to do that asap but it could take up to 6 months and my husband wants to start working straight away to start paying rent and bills.
Hi there I'd like to know once my husband and I return to the UK via SS route, will my husband (non-eu) be allowed to work straight away? I understand in theory he should be able to because of me, but is it really that easy? What would he say if he was asked what his status is in the UK and would mo...
I wanted to know if my husband can 'join' me in the UK if I left early? When we applied for the UK permit it was to travel together. Would it cause a problem boarding a plane to the UK?
Ah! Sorry mis read that. Urm, we got it with our documents. Our letter stated when the decision is due and also a request for some docs. They might send it to you separately.
I will be returning via the surrinder route. I know the rules are changing but if people are prepared to move to another country for the sake of the SS route, then surely staying long enough (longer than 6 months?) and genuinely making an effort to make it the centre of their life shouldn't really b...
Thank you latintraveller I hope that in the spirit of the new year they speed it up just a little! So yours took only 4 months? We already applied for a UK family permit and its valid till April. We are planning to re apply start of feb because after we return to the UK we have plans to travel in ap...
Our decision is due 15th Feb, are applications being done in time these days? When do you think we should expect it? We would ideally want to leave Ireland before 20th Feb.
Pleaseeeee someone tell me it will be decided before 15th!!!! lol
Thank you both for your replies. Well I can show a profit if I don't show too much stock. I am not worried about benefits at the moment. I know it makes no difference but my husband works as well so we can support ourselves. We are planning to return to the UK in Feb, so I'm not sure whether I shoul...
Hi I am currently self-employed in Ireland. I registered my business in Feb 2013 but applied for tax registration in August I think. I wanted to know if anyone has any idea when I need to file a self-assessment? And if I'm making a loss, how do I go about Tax. I thought I had to wait until I have do...
I agree with your post OP. She needs to realise how her actions are hurting so many people. Imagine how many families are suffering, stressed and worried about their situation while shes enjoying with her family... dont think anyone would want to wish her genuinely, only out of sarcasm. Merry Christ...
Sorry, I'm not sure what you meant by how one can form face-to-face relationships. My husband was in the UK for 4 years before we got married. He was studying at the time and when he finished, we decided to apply for a spouse visa. I believe the OP's boyfriend is in the UK. I'm sure the financial re...
Why do you think people circumvent UK immigration rules? Okay, there may be a few who abuse the system but majority of the people are genuine. UK make it difficult for people to live with their loved ones even when the requirements are met. I have a genuine relationship and we went through the 'UK' ...
I'm sorry I have not read it, but just thought it would be much easier for people to read your post if you put the story into smaller paragraphs. Edit it and just put a few spaces in between
You need to get a GNIB card/stamp 4 before they will give you a re-entry visa. If you are in Dublin, you can apply at the INIS office in central. Both Garda and INIS are in the same building.
Hi Jambo I'm planning on re-applying and giving the reason of returning to the UK in May. Do you think its likely they will cancel the existing one? We would ideally want to return in Feb or March and settle before travelling in April. Its actually so disheartening. My husband and I, had just met a ...
