Hi Siroc, I’m have a similar issue, I’m awaiting my documents over 7 months, expected time was May according to my employer. I’ve reserved a property and submitted my mortgage application. I wrote to my MP to chase this a week ago. Is your issue resolved? Did the Bank gave another option? Thanks Hi...

Hi there, thanks for that. We hadn't, however unfortunately it isn't a standard error like the ones that list attempts to troubleshoot. What's the error? "We cannot find your current status in this service" Bizarrely it works to generate a code and profile using her pre-settled status app...

Hi all, Has anyone had an issue with generating a share code using the online 'View and prove your immigration status' service to evidence your Settled or Pre-Settled status? My partner received Settled Status a few years ago but it seems the Home Office never properly updated her profile and as a r...

Now I'm really quite confused - from reading the information on the Home Office website it would seem that my wife (EEA citizen) can apply for permanent residence herself online and for me at the same time? So the pros/cons of applying for PR from my (limited) understanding is: + To make the process...

I do not see any point applying for RC. The only difference between applying for RC and PR is that for PR you need to demonstrate that - your partner exercised treaty rights for 5 years - you resided in UK for 5 years If it is easy to prove (say she has all her P60, you have bank statements showing...

Note that 5 years after which you acquire permanent residency start from the day you entered UK, not from the day they issued you EEA2. If it expires in February 2019, it means it was granted in February 2014. But you applied before that, and you entered UK even before you applied. So probably you ...

There are a number of reasons why one would like to apply for a new RC before one's current RC expires, for example, theft or loss, or, as in your case, to avoid having a gap. Don't quote me on this, but providing you submit your current RC with your application (which is probably the only downside...

Also, to avoid any risk, it' also up to you to decide to maybe apply for another RC before yours expires, even though, as you say, might be a bit silly given you'll be able to apply for Settled status shortly after that. However, any RC you obtain in 2019 will still be valid until December 2020, so...

Thanks Kamoe for your insight - and for the links.

My employer knows that the "Renewal Date" for my residence permit is in February, so I suppose my difficulty will be proving my legality should they ask to check this (quite likely).

Hi all, I currently hold a 5-year residence permit as a non-EEA family member to an EEA national (wife). This is due to expire in February 2019. My wife continues to exercise her rights as an employed person and, had Brexit not been a factor, we would have intended to apply for EEA3 and EEA4 permane...

Hi all, I currently hold a 5-year residence permit as a family member to an EEA national (wife). This is due to expire in February 2019. I have recently been made redundant from my job and am a little concerned about proving my eligibility to work going forward. Firstly, my permit is in my expired A...

Hi there, If an EU national can be absent from the host member state for six months in every twelve without affecting their continuity of residence, does this mean that their economic status in the UK becomes irrelevant during that period of time (in terms of a future EEA3/EEA4 application)? Or say ...

The number he contacted me on was a private number and the telephone number and email address section on the letterhead signed by him is conspicuously missing any details. I contacted the call centre but, as expected, they won't give me his contact details only to offer to email him on my behalf whi...

Hi there, Just under a month ago I submitted a formal complaint about my missing passport in possession of the UKBA. The issue was they issued my RC on a standalone document despite the fact they had my passport. In response to my complaint I received a phone call from my case worker (private number...

Hi there,

The only information I received regarding my case worker was his name at the bottom of one of their letters. Otherwise, I don't have anything.

Hi there, I received my RC on a stand alone document at the start of this month. However, only my wife's EEA passport was sent back together with all documents. -------- A little background: back in December I requested my wife's EEA passport to be returned. I waited over a month for this (and neede...

Congratulations! I sent my application on 26 Nov 2013. Hopefully I will receive my residence card soon. Fingers crossed. I submitted my EEA2 application under the student route (unmarried couple), my boyfriend is still a student at the moment. But he received a job offer, starting in Jun 2014(after...

Hi all, 29 October, 2013 : EEA1 & EEA2 sent (Student route, EEA FP (marriage), Australian/Lithuanian nationalities) 30 October, 2013 : received by UKBA 10 December, 2013 : COA with right to work received, issue date of 2 December 7 February, 2014 : RC and Registration Certificate received, issue...

Hi, I considered doing the same, thanks. Did you reapply in the end? If so, how long until your RC was issued? Did you send a different financial declaration signed by your wife? It must be infuriating to receive a refusal based on their clear violation of the legislation.... Also, can I ask how muc...

Hi there, Having perused some earlier posts on this forum, I came across one case whereby an EEA2 application was refused partly on the basis that the EEA sponsor (student) provided no information that they continued to hold CSI in the UK as no bank statements confirming the continued payment of the...

Just out of curiosity, was there ever a case where the UKBA issued an interview request to an EEA2 applicant (and his/her partner) who arrived in the UK on an EEA Family Permit?
