My RC is still Valid till 08/15 still valid for one year, but been married to EEA over 5years as qualify for PR after 5 years from the date of marriage

......................................
been married since 06/2009 outside the Uk, lived in Uk over five years
Request for passport to travel on the 06/08 for urgent travel, passport received in a week 13/08 with out PR issue.
A letter attached saying non EEA wishing to travel aboard should apply for an EEA family permit at a british diplomatic post aboard before returning to the Uk, as it free of charge and on priority basis. It should be noted that any such application would need to be supported by evidence to show that EEA national is in the Uk, is exercising treaty right, and that the relationship is as claimed. Please do not return your passport to the HO until it been requested by a Caseworker.
However, I still have one year valid left on my RC, please can anyone here advise if I don't need to apply for the permit at the british diplomatic aboard to return, can I used my RC still valid for one year to return in the Uk, or decide not to even go aboard at all, can anyone confirm that the letter is written to me by my caseworker as there is a name on the letter and a contact number on it which is very unlikely of them ?
I'm going for the purpose of collecting data abroad for my research, in which I'm looking for the possibility to do that over the phone and internet based.
Can you please advise of what might suit best in my situation ? I will look forward to you guys advise
Still waiting guys
i will keep you updated guys.....
You can't really use your Residence Card. Your Residence Card was conditioned to the fact that you were a family member of an EEA national exercising Treaty Rights in the UK. This is not the case anymore, since you have divorced your EEA national on 05/14. Hopefully the HO will be sensible enough to process your EEA4 request without a hiccup, since this looks like a straightforward retention of rights case.
Regarding travel arrangements, if you are a VISA national, I'd personally postpone any trips until you have sorted this out. It shouldn't take much longer and you may be hassled in the border by an ill-informed agent.
@ teardrops - How long has your husband been continuously been working? If you apply now, your husband would have needed to be employed or self employed or economically self sufficient since August 2009.teardrops wrote:That was a very fast processing application. I am about to submit my application for P.R. but am a bit concern for the fact that mine is not so straight forward as some people do. My husband only work for four months after we got married in 2009 but has been working since he came to London, he lost his job in the recession and then got a tempoary one for four months after we got married. He has been getting his pension credit from then until now, am wondering if it will cause a problem for me as the non eu.
I have been working for the same company for the past 6 years to present, we don't have any comprenhensive sickness insurance cover either because we never knew of that and we never uses the NHS in five years, becuase we pay for private GP becuase of the long wait on NHS. I am just wondering if this will caues a problem for me, what do you think ?

I think you have every reason to call and check with them, tomorrow I will call them myself to check what's going on. By the way I have called them few times for my COA and it was re-issued on 28th July, after first one was lost in mail on 4th July due to wrong address by case worker.sam&dani wrote:yes it looks like..beacusae i am waiting for it too. applyed for bothe eea3&4 on 10 of Aprilno answer till nowmario00 wrote:It looks like fast processing has hit a speed breaker, waiting for more than 2 months for my PR
I think you have no reason to call them, as they clearly state on the COA letter that the application will be dealt with within the next 6 months following the application and you should only call them after the 6 months period.mario00 wrote:I think you have every reason to call and check with them, tomorrow I will call them myself to check what's going on.

I did not know that even then sam&dani application is almost 6 months old, I have already called them few times, I did not use a solicitor that's why never got such useful information.

Yes you are right, its just I have to apply for my BC as well, as I have more than 6 years of marriage. I have booked my life in the UK test ideal situation for me will be to get passport before next year.claraluh wrote:My first application took one month exactly to be returned, I applied with my mom, she got a PR but they refused mine saying I didn't send proof of residence for the last 5 years, and I did, for the last 6 years. So I decided to send it again, and it has been almost 2 months as well. but I am trying to be patient, I know we get really anxious but there is nothing we can do. Just think positive and have faith in God that it will be alright.
