I'm new here and want some advice from you
Me and my husband applied for EEA fm
Application sent 14 april
COA 05.05
RC: Pending
I see that some have been rejected because they have not submitted comprehensive sickness insureance. Do I Need health insurance even while working here in the UK?
Hello everyone. I just wanted to say again that we DID sent the comprehensive sickness insurance (which we paid 600 usd each!) . For some unknown reasons, the caseworker was not satisfied because we sent the email of the company, which has all the information you need, like policy number, price, issue date, name, contact number etc. The caseworker also said that there was no proof that the policy had been paid. How can you have a policy if you don't pay for it? We indeed didn't include the proof of payment, because it was obvious in my point of view that if you have the policy, it means you paid for it. The most absurd is that the phone number of the company was there, and a single call would have confirmed everything was right...
Not really sure what we are gonna do anyway. Look for an advisor an appeal for the sake of honour. I was also unclear if my wife will retain the right of work during the appeal. She doesn't even know how to tell her employer on Monday. So embarrassing...
Not even to mention that the letter mentioned she might be enforced to leave, which is cleary against the law, since the doubt of a sickness insurance does not represent a threat to security or public health, which would be the only way a family member of a EEA national could be removed.
