John wrote:OK you have told us about your husband, but what about you?
What is your Citizenship? You are living in the UK? In what way are you exercising your EU/EEA Treaty Rights? For example, are you employed? Self-employed? Or what?
How long have you been exercising your Treaty Rights in the UK?
Thank you , John. I do appreciate your reply.John wrote:That is great. Clearly you are exercising EU Treaty Rights in the UK.
Accordingly, unless there is reason for them to think that the marriage is a marriage of convenience, and why would they think that, your husband has a right to join you so that he may also exercise EU Treaty Rights, unless he is a danger to Public Safety or Public Health.
In the circumstances the British Mission in your husband's country will probably consult with the UK, to ensure that everything is OK, and then they will hopefully issue the EEA Family Permit. In reality such applications are rarely refused.
If there is a refusal, exceptionally, then it is a question of looking at the reason for refusal, and then deciding what to do next.
Could it not count as deception?John wrote:Clearly there are some offences, such as being involved in armed robbery, which might lead someone to conclude that a person represents a danger to Public Safety. However the passport offence is clearly not in that category, but it might explain why the application is taking some time to process.
Hopefully things will turn out fine, but if they so reject the application, do post the grounds for the rejection, so comments can be made about what to do next.
Hello,John wrote:Maybe, but that would not detract from his EU Treaty Rights, to live in the UK with his spouse.
Relax. He just has to enter the UK within the validity period, but he can stay longer. The FP is not a visa, and it does not confer any rights, but only confirms an existing right.freedom83 wrote:If the date n FP will stay as it is (29.05) , and when he comes to UK around August - will he still have a chance to get a Residence Card?
I agree, no harm in doing that, but I think it helps if it is clear that he is exercising his EU Treaty Rights, for example by being employed.thsths wrote:you should try to apply for the residence card asap
Just to emphasise what thsths has already posted, the EU Treaty Rights exist, and the EEA Family Permit already issued, and the Residence Card to be issued in the UK later, are merely confirmatory of the rights already possessed. Accordingly the way the EU regulations, that came into force on 30.04.06, are worded he does not even need to make an application on form EEA2 for the Residence Card. It is voluntary that he makes that application. Even without the Residence Card he has all of his EU Treaty Rights.freedom83 wrote:My husband got the FP- finally , after 2 months wait.
