I know that as a non-visa national, the EEA FP was not required, but our case is slightly complicated; dual UK/Irish citizen and myself having lived together in Dublin, then living in the US for 6 years. So as our situation was not cut and dry, I decided it would be best to apply for the EEA FP. Goo...
I was granted an EEA FP, I do not require a visa to enter the UK, as I am a non-visa national. Unless things change, the current plan is to live in Northern Ireland with my EEA/UK wife. Would it make any difference to the UK immigration folk or for my future EEA2 application if I am to arrive into D...
from the the UKBA website : "EUN2.16 Can family members of dual British / Irish nationals qualify for an EEA family permit? Until 16 July 2012 persons who held British citizenship and who were also nationals of another EEA member state could rely on that EEA nationality to benefit from the term...
@chaoclive - With regards to the Form for EEA2 RC; it is my belief, that in our situation, we are allowed to apply with my wife as a dual UK/Irish citizen. I believe this becuase we have lived in the other member state, Ireland, of which is also a citizen. I will look more closely into it, but at th...
She used the Irish passport, as she doesn't hold a valid UK passport currently. We also included her N. Irish birth cert, UK driving license, my expired GNIB Garda Immigration residence card, amongst other stuff...
I believe a marriage visa is required, but I am not 100% sure. I, myself got a marriage visit visa about 7 years ago. We were married in northern ireland, and lived/worked in Dublin after our marriage. I think they are required... And I agree with jambo that getting married in the UK will not affect...
My vote would tend to be that my wife is a dual citizen, even if she does not have a valid UK passport at the moment. She was able to get Irish citizenship from the Good Friday Agreement. From EUN2.16 Can family members of dual British / Irish nationals qualify for an EEA family permit? : Where a pe...
Yes, she has had a UK passport. The Irish passport was issued to her when she was 18, but she had lived/worked in Ireland for a short time before getting the passport.
And, is it not true that having a passport or not having a passport has no bearing on your citizenship.
Hello, Do you think I qualify for the EEA route? I am an American citizen. My wife is British/Irish (currently she holds only an Irish passport). We have been living in the US for the past 6 years. We were married 7.5 years ago in Northern Ireland, I was granted a UK marriage visit visa. After the w...
So as a non-visa national, the FP could expire while I am in the UK with no consequence? as I could still travel into and out of the UK w/o it? and I would just want to apply for a residence card as soon as possible? And why do you think a family permit isnt all that useful in terms of securing empl...
I'd understood that it could be post-dated by up to three months and then valid for another six. This is not a definitive answer, but one that I believe to be the case. That is my understanding too. Let's presume that you are correct for the sake of my original question. While I understand that an ...
1) EEA FP can be applied 6 months before travel (see (2) in EUN2.4). 2) If you are a US citizen (and married to EEA national), why to bother with EEA FP? See Q1 in EEA FAQs - Common Questions - Read before posting - EEA Family Permit . 1) Thanks for replying, I appreciate your input. Let me start b...
Hello, I will be applying for a UK family permit in the near future. My planned date of arrival to the UK is somewhere around the end of May or early June of 2014. As one cannot apply for the FP before 3 months of the expected date of travel, I would like to know if there is any reason why I would n...
