@thehurricane I went through the EEA family permit document checklist and no where did they mention that the residence permit of any EU nation is a required when a person applies. So I suppose its that way. Have u checked the form? There is a question asking "Do you have a valid residence card...

@dalebutt do you think you could provide me with a link or some written info stating the European law you mentioned? @the hurricane why was that someone refused a EEA family permit because of not holding a valid resident permit in the Netherlands? Is it necessary to hold resident permits in the cou...

Hi flyboy thanks for feedback. Even if I do not hold a valid Schengen visa or apply after my Schengen visa expires will I still be able to apply for EEA family permit to the UK or an Irish visa from Czech rep? but my problem is that Romanian authorities have rejected my application for a family mem...

You just need a short stay visa to enter and afterwards you and your spouse apply for your residence card within the country as long as your spouse will be exercising her treaty rights. http://www.mvcr.cz/mvcren/article/temporary-residence.aspx http://www.mvcr.cz/mvcren/article/temporary-residence....

I am reapplying,and I will also add more additional evidence,like my skype log,which to me is unnecessary.To get a visa I'll have to show them what and what we discussed on Skype dating back to 2 years.I will also include pictures dating back to 2 years when when we met.Do I really need to expose m...

You are correct to apply as the spouse of an EU citizen, as your husband has been working in the UK and so EU law applies. You should be very clear with them that you will report them to the European Commission (making a formal complaint) if they persist and that they are required to issue the visa...

. If I were u I'd had withdrawn the application and travel without a visa as long as your husband can write a letter in Spanish explaining that u'll be joining him in Spain and u've ur marriage certificate with u I don't see any problem with that. How can I travel without a visa if I can;t even get...

I mean yes he Lives in the UK, we both live here and married here and I have a residence card EEA2 Yes you can travel to Spain without a visa if you hold EEA2 just bear in mind that some airlines are ignorant about it specially the low-cost carriers. For instance, on the spanish consulate's website...

Hello! Please help I don't know what to do. That's what I got today for my Spanish visa application : Your visa application reference number:xxxxxx > is pending and additional documents are required, please contact the Schengen Visa Application Centre for details .

Hello fellow, My friend is an EU national , and wants to apply for the Irish visa for his third country family members. He has a birth certificate in French issued non EU country. So, he is wondering if the Irish embassy does require the document to be translated in English and legalized with aposti...

Hi guys, My friend's wife got a schengen visa at the German consulate for 15 days under Directive 2004 as he is an EU citizen. Now they want to extend the visa for 2 more weeks , and I was wondering whether they should pay for the visa extension because the initial visa was issued free of charge. An...

She can apply for a visa from the UK. The case she needs to make is that she is dependent on you. I think that about 95 such visas were granted last year, but I do not know how many applied. Dependence is difficult to show, but basically you say that although you could hire a person to care for her...

what if i reapply but this time i'll say she is in the uk i will use her boarding pass to show that she went to the uk will they can check if she is really there ? But what if they come up with another excuse then, will you just keep applying? I don't think it is worthy to re-apply just follow ukfo...

What I can guarantee is that there will be problems followed complaining to people and waiting and my wife and I wondering if we'll ever be together, I would go to Ireland right now if I could but I'm stuck here working harder than I have at any job before for hardly any money (becaue I don't speak...

Ok the German embassy does seem like the best option at the moment, thanks I think if you'd listened to my idea of Germany maybe your wife would have been here already! few hints when applying at the German consulate: - As your wife already have a refusal from the Dutch consulate, you will need to ...

So here is where I am right now, I have an appointment to register with the IND On Monday but don't think it'll work out as I don't think the people I'm working for will fill in an employers declaration, I have a contract but apparently need the employers declaration aswell, it's virtually impossib...

Hi again :D ! I previously posted about how to get immigration in Germany in English for free but after consulting with my friends and people around forum, I guess it would be nice to skip the plan for now... So I was checking with Cyprus and found out Eastern Mediterranean University is a nice uni...

Hi, I have visited many agents in my town to enquire about German Student Visa and all they say its free but agent charges really high fee around 3000 euro ! After googling a lot I got this fourm, hope to find a way here... About Me: I have finished my education upto class 12 (A Level) in Kuwait (M...

Yeah I was just going to wait a week, see what replies I got from various people, including Solvit and now the ministry of foreign affairs and if nothing my wife can apply at the German embassy at the start of next week, so if the visa works out I can just pick my wife up in Germany and come straig...

I am Irish and currently settled in the United Kingdom for the last 5 years. I am thinking of relocating back to Dublin.I wanted advice on applying for family permits for my non EEA family members who are currently in Africa.Is it easy to get a family permit if thy will be joining me to visit Irela...

It is good to be optimistic, but I would rather thread carefully when relying on EU laws to obtain certain rights especially when it has to do with a 3rd country. I have been through several of these in the past, I know quite a lot who also have been turned and played like toys when trying to get S...

Not yet, was just holding off for a week to see if Solvit or anyone replied about the Dutch visa, one thing I'm wary about is the fact I'm not in Germany and if they'll accept a cover letter saying I'll there as Solvit and Your Europe Advice have mentioned that before Well, I am not sure if you are...

sorry one more question to thehurricane it says on the website of the German embassy that you have to contact them for an appointment, is this the case for us with this kind of visa or can she just turn up with the documents, would she just be turned away without an appointment? Thanks @ Stuartb An...
