Hi,
I currently have an EEA family member permit to work and live in the UK until 2017. I have re-entered the UK many times without any problem, but yesterday I returned from a trip to New Zealand with my wife (of whom I am the EEA family member) - I went to the EU passport holders desk with my wife (as I have done in the past) and handed the immigration officer my current passport, and my old passport which contains my valid EEA permit, and told him "Here is my visa". He fluffed around for a minute or so, then stamped my current passport and handed them both back. He asked me NO questions, which I thought was odd, but after 24 hours on a plane I was happy with this. It was only some time afterwards that I noticed he has given me the wrong stamp (most times I dont even get a stamp). It has an additional section at the top which says that I only have the right to remain for 6 months and cant work or recourse to public funds etc. Initially I thought this would simply be a case of sorting it out next time I re-enter the UK, but now this officer blunder has me stressing that there may be wider implication/a lot of hassle fixing. I live and work full time in the UK, is this entry clearance going to give me problems? Who should I contact to resolve the situation? Any help would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks very much,
Shaun
