If he gets to Heathrow, then he will also get into the UK. Even without a visa entry would have to be facilitated at the border for someone who falls under derived freedom of movement.chaoclive wrote:I don't want my civil partner to get to Heathrow and then get turned away at immigration, just because of the 'to acc' on the visa.
Hi, chaoclive. That sounds so good.chaoclive wrote:I got a reply from the European Ops Team. They said:
"With regards to your below query, the EEA Family Permit is issued in line with regulation 12 of the Immigration (European Economic Area) Regulations 2006. This regulation states that the purpose of an EEA Family Permit is to allow the non-EEA national family member of an EEA national to accompany or join his/her sponsor in the UK.
Although the wording on the vignette says only “to accompany”, in practice this means “to accompany or join”; the omission is simply due to a lack of space on the vignette and it will not prevent your civil partner from joining you in the UK. This right is enshrined by Article 5 of Directive 2004/38/EC and the UK has fully implemented it into the Regulations as cited above."
I then asked if they were able to provide anything that they can give to Easyjet, they said:
"If your partner has an EEA Family Permit that is valid for travel, you should experience no issues from the carrier. However, if you wish to confirm with them beforehand, you may give them this email inbox address and we will answer any queries they have directly."
Yeah, that could be an issue for some people, but won't be a problem for me as I'm entering a little less than a month before him. I'm not sure if I will risk it or not at this stage.el patron wrote:Typical double-speak, but good work getting a response! However if the EEA national has been in the UK for more than 3 months and is not a qualified person that could have consequences at UK border control. I don't think Easyjet check-in staff will be expected to look into things that far, especially if presented with the email response you have received. I think border control questioning will be expanded to enable dealing with the 'abuse' of initial right to reside that apparently is occurring.
