@All - Count Down Time

4 MONTHS TO GO FOR BOTH EEA ZAMBRANO AND EU SETTLEMENT SCHEME ZAMBRANO APPLICATIONS.

IF YOU WANT TO STAY IN THE GAME BEYOND 31 DECEMBER 2020, THEN KEEP YOUR ZAMBRANO EEA IN AS I ALWAYS ADVISE.

4 MONTHS TO GO
@ Snooky Thanks for your endless advice and support on this platform.
Just to clarify this as someone with current ltr can I still apply for Dfr1 in order to re-apply for EU settlement.
A lawyer friend said I can't apply for it since I am under FM, well I have applied anyway.
Hope it will not affect my current status?
Thanks.

Under regulation 16, nothing stops you to apply for EEA or EU Leave to remain as far as you are not exempt under regulation 16(7).

But HO guidance is the problem which needs to be challenged because Reg 16(7) made clear that exempt persons are

(i)who has a right to reside under another provision of these Regulations;
(ii)who has the right of abode under section 2 of the 1971 Act(1);
(iii)to whom section 8 of the 1971 Act(2), or an order made under subsection (2) of that section(3), applies; or
(iv)who has indefinite leave to enter or remain in the United Kingdom.

This means if you have LLTR which UK immigration calls it PSIC and defined in s.13(2) of the Asylum and Immigration Act 1996 then you have the right to apply.

Bear in mind that in EU Leave to REMAIN you are not subject to UK immigration control. Anyone whose leave is controlled could apply because you are not an exempt person.

So is a matter of eu law and immigration guidance which has the power.

@Snooky,

Read the Settlement Scheme Main Caseworkers Guidance page 31 - 32.

If you are not satisfy, all what you have to put in new application. But I will urge to put in EEA Zambrano too because HO is not given Zambrano just like that.

@ Snooky
Since the have not responded to the withdrawal request from the solicitor, if i put in a new settlement scheme, would it count as a new Settlement Scheme application?

I am already on EU derivative.

You can write to them to ignore the letter the Solicitor wrote or you can log in another application. Requesting for redrawal does not necessarily means HO will grant it though.

@Snooky

Thank you, i will request for a new Settlement Scheme application because it is already complicated.

My question:
If i log in a new application, will it count as a new one since the have not responded to the withdrawal request?

You will have to speak to them tomorrow and find out the state of your application. As I said, requesting to redraw an application is not necessarily that HO will do it. Find out and give us feed back.

But why would you Solicitor as for a Withdrawal?

Hi Snooky,

I am just seeing my refusal email today, it went to my junk mail.
the reason was that I am currently on ltr till next year and I would like to do AR but only got 3days.
Please can you guide me through AR, am not giving up without a fight!

Thanks
@Mecry sorry to hear and don’t give up. Continue the fight as HO is hell bent on frustrating Zambrano applicants for money gains. They now have a special team dealing with paper application and they are dishing out the refusals like Santa Claus. Can I ask when you made your application and where you asked to provide additional evidence?
Hello,
Are they just ‘dishing’ out refusal letters to applicants with visas already or just in general? Thanks

Yes yes yes, HO is refusing both Zambrano EEA and Zambrano EU Settlement Scheme. Those on Zambrano EEA will always win at the courts but those within EU Settlement Scheme Zambrano still has a long way because no Zambrano EU Settlement Scheme has gone to court and HO is refusing cases before 30 of January 2020

@snooky,its like the HO are changing their ways now. I have call for a new EU settlement scheme application form,they told me, I already have 2.5lltr I should stick to the routes ,I will not be granted the EU settlement scheme.

Though my drf1 is already with them .

Mine was posted on 24th June, money taken out the very next day; since then I haven't heard from them. They are dismissive each time I call. Standard response is to wait until it is out of standard service time before calling again

@All Still Waiting

Remember that your EEA Drf1 applicaton is the key to your EU Settlement Scheme.

Netqueen has shown that. Put pressure to win EEA Zambrano and all shall be will.
