Hi jambo, can you kindly explain further why you said for an irish it doesn't bring any value applying for eea3?Jambo wrote:I don't think many apply for EEA3. For an Irish, it really brings no value. Save the £55.
As Irish citizens automatically have a right to reside in the UK as part of the (CTA) common travel area anyway, Irish people don't really benefit a lot from having PR (on form EEA3). That means, if the UK leaves the EU, it won't affect whether or not Irish people can live freely in the (at least not in the near future).Prospect wrote:Hi jambo, can you kindly explain further why you said for an irish it doesn't bring any value applying for eea3?Jambo wrote:I don't think many apply for EEA3.

Of course she can apply for EEA3 - EEA1 is irrelevant.Prospect wrote:@chaoclive that's interesting. But a couple of questions, she didn't apply for eea1 in the first place does that mean she can't apply for eea3 later on? Secondly we live in NI and after 3 years of marriage I think I would be eligible for irish citizenship, if I get that do I still need to apply for eea4 by the time my eea2 expires?
Fingers crossed! We just got the COA on Monday so I'm not holding my breath for a speedy responseProspect wrote:That's brilliant we live in belfast too. At least it's a good thing that there are more options to take when the time comes. Goodluck to you and your spouse on the eea2 application. Hopefully it shouldn't take too long since you already have the eea1.
Hi. We applied on 2nd Oct (received by Home Office on 3rd) and we got the COA on 27th Oct (it was dated 22nd).nachfee wrote:choactive,
How long did it take you from the time you applied to get the COA?
Great news! Thanks for your responses. Very helpful!
My husband is Irish and we live in the UK.
