you mean countries that even require a tourist visa, correct?Iyk13 wrote:if you have a non european passport that required a visa to enter the uk, without the visa the airline will not board you on the plane, even if you bring coa letter and marriage certificate.
I suggest you start asking them if you will be able to start your job with the COA as long as it enables you to work!catj wrote:Hello everyone,
I just made my application yesterday (20th July).
After reading a few latest posts, I am very worried about the processing time... I have a job offer which starts in mid-October...
I really hope everything goes fine.
I will update my posts if I hear from them.
yes, the airline will not take responsibility of flying you back so they need to guarantee your entry clearance to the uk before your board on the plane, a coa and marriage certificate won't do and is not enough for them (regardless whether it works at the uk border or not). they need to see a valid visa on your passport if the uk doesn't grant u a tourist visa on arrival with ur non eu passportMileman wrote:you mean countries that even require a tourist visa, correct?Iyk13 wrote:if you have a non european passport that required a visa to enter the uk, without the visa the airline will not board you on the plane, even if you bring coa letter and marriage certificate.

EEA2 app: 14/11/14
Received HO: 17/11/14
COA isseyd : 02/12/14, rec: 05/12/14
Since then I heard nothing till I contract my pm after
Going to 8 months.
I went to mp 26 of june 15 and I got letter from mp after 2 weeks saying she wrote them behalf of me and they should get
Back to me by 8weeks but God so good same day she wrote them I got home visit 10 of july which I guess they are making move for visiting as well. But unfortunately I was not at home when they came but they found my wife at home and my daughter. 3 officers came 2 women and 1men and they ask for me she said I was in friends house helping for paint and they check my baby dob and my cloths and pics on the phone. I think they all happy about it and spend 5mins and leaved so I was so worried till 17th mp send me the email they send her saying I was been issued on the 14th of july so therefore I should get my Rc in 10 days time .
So what I wanna say to ppl on here is never give up and Allah will make easy for you . As long you are are real couples:)
Waiting for rc now I got all my docs my lawyer called me now
Issued rc separately now
Could you be more specific about the home visit you had : what time was it ? How long did it last for ? And what questions did they ask ?
As im afraid neither me or my wife are at home during normal working hours ... :/
Not sure if you read bilisredar post from yesterday, the HO told him over the phone yesterday that the new form plus shortage of staff are making the wait to be around 7/8 months.RC022015 wrote:Any news Pursuitofhappiness?
I'm 5 months post application and haven't heard back from HO.
The delay has overpassed the average 4.5 months lately.
I guess late feb applicants / early march are unlucky and the holiday season is surely not helping!
I thought it was applicable for mid March onward applicants.Mileman wrote:Not sure if you read bilisredar post from yesterday, the HO told him over the phone yesterday that the new form plus shortage of staff are making the wait to be around 7/8 months.RC022015 wrote:Any news Pursuitofhappiness?

Let´s just hope they were giving a longer timeframe to reduce the number of people calling and asking...
I guess the lack of news accross the board means it is mostly a new form issue.RC022015 wrote:I thought it was applicable for mid March onward applicants.Mileman wrote:Not sure if you read bilisredar post from yesterday, the HO told him over the phone yesterday that the new form plus shortage of staff are making the wait to be around 7/8 months.RC022015 wrote:Any news Pursuitofhappiness?

I was referring to end of Feb / early March applications.
But I think we're in the same boat
What a tiring wait!
Nothing at all Mileman I rang them this afternoon and they told me there is no way of checking the status of my application..I knew I'd get that answer bt I thought it was worth a try.this is soo depressing I wonder if they know how hard it is not being able to plan your life because u are just waiting for their response..Mileman wrote:RC022015 wrote:Any news Pursuitofhappiness?

This is my 2nd attempt to apply for EEA Residence Card becuase the first time I sent one on 29/4/15, the Charging department didn't indicate my payment in the system so the caseworker cancelled my application by mistake. I sent a complaint letter which got them to investigate what went wrong and email me an apology, so now I'm starting all over again.
