Please can anyone help me regarding the application form.
This is gonna be a long post so sorry in advance and thank you..
There are few questions that I am a bit confuse so please bare with me.
- Quick history - A came in UK in 2014 - Got EEA family permit same year, got settled status in 2019 -
1. Are you either an
- EEA or Swiss National
- A family member of an EEA or Swiss National
** I came in the UK using EEA FAMILY PERMIT THROUGH SURINDER SINGH, so should I select "YES"?
Not quite sure but your husband is British so answer should be NO I think.
2. Do you have a permanent residence card or document?
** I never had one because by the time I was due to apply one, the rule was change to PRE SETTLED AND SETTLED STATUS, so should I select "NO"?
Not required....no
3. Do you have a valid nationality identity card?
** Philippines only started issuing identity card I would say couple of years ago, I never had one, will this affect my application? Do I have to have this? Not required....no
4. My 2 referees are both from my work place.
** Both dental surgeon, both my employer but one is the deputy chief of dental officer England so meaning one is higher than the other plus he also got an MBE, will this be enough or do I have to have 2 referees with different professions?
No issue - you can have referees with the same profession from the same workplace
5. Are you able to provide BIOMETRIC RESIDENCE PERMIT?
** What is this please? I have the "SETTLED STATUS" card, is this the same?
Yes - Your card is a BRP.
6. Regarding immigration details?
** Where was it made? All application was done though "BRISTISH HIGH COMMISSION NICOSIA" so should I put that down? They also asking for reference number? Is it ok to put the visa number?
Provide any information you have - dates can be estimates if you can't remember.
AND FOR THE LAST ONE (REGARDING DOCUMENTS)
- Passport issued by philippines for the applicant (check) ok
- Proof of nationality (why they asking that if Im already showing them my passport?) no idea but it's your passport.
- Current biometric residence permit (is this the settled status card?) Yes -your BRP.
- English certificate (check) ok
- Proof of living in the UK - 3 years as married to a british national (what do i need to show them?) P60 for every year or council tax bills showing your name.
- Marriage certificate (check)ok
- 2 referree (check)ok
- Proof of british citizenship of husband - his passport (check)ok
You have done the LITUK test?
SORRY FOR THE VERY LONG POST GUYS
I'M JUST VERY NERVOUS WITH MY APPLICATION
We have all been through this - hope these quick replies will suffice.

"BRPs are different from biometric residence cards (BRCs). BRCs are also called ‘UK residence cards’. You might have one if you’re in the UK as a family member of someone from the EU, Switzerland, Norway, Iceland or Liechtenstein.

I hope you dont mind.

The sticker I had was a Residence Permit of an EU EEA family member (I got it in 2014 and was expired in 2020.

"5. Are you able to provide BIOMETRIC RESIDENCE PERMIT?" Your answer should be NO
I just edit my answer and changed it to "No" and the next question was "Do you have BRP from a previous stay in the UK?" - Is this the EEA Family Permit? I have this sticker on my old passport, if that is a BRP then I should answer "Yes" for this next question?
Sorry if I have too much question.
I hope you dont mind.
Thanks for being patient xx
1. Residence Permit of an EU/EEA family member - Application made in UK
2. EEA family Permit (Surinder Singh Route) - Application made outside UK
The application needs a minimal number of documents. P60s for each year are sufficient. Proving your absences is not necessary as such though they will see stamps in your passport of course.ljdebenedictis wrote: ↑Fri Jun 24, 2022 3:29 pmHello everyone.
PLEASE CAN SOMEONE HELP ME.
For the documents I need to submit, I was asked to provide proof of 3-5 years living in UK.
Are P60s enough? I'm on a full time basis (not sure if that matters), never been away for more than 90 days (I've got proofs of entry and exit stamps).
Will this be enough?
Or do I need to submit anything else?
If yes, what are my options?
Thanks in advance everyone.
Have a lovely weekend xx

Thank yoi for your reply.
I have uploaded P60s (2018 to 2022) and scanned copies of exit and entry stamps so I believe O now have enough supporting documents.
My other question is, do I need to scan all the pages of my passport even if its empty? I scanned them all and tried to upload on website but it wouldnt allow me due to the size of file is over the limit. Is it actuall essential to upload all pages? There is no definitive answer to this. You can 1. Scan biodata page and pages with immigration history I.e. visa vignettes and entry exit stamps or 2. Scan all pages, reduce it to be within limits and upload.
Either option used by applicants and got successful outcome.
Thank in advance xx

The IDV app usage has being in use for some time now since the lockdown period with forum members who used it also getting successful outcome despite the current experience of people getting email that biometrics not done.ljdebenedictis wrote: ↑Tue Jun 28, 2022 5:25 amGood morninf everyone.
I hope you are all ok.
Today I received an invitation to use IDV app and I believe I will not be needing to attend a biometrics appointment.
Has anyone got a successful experience with this?
I did look around to find previous post but all I see is people getting an email that they receive email about not attending their biometrics.
I am a bit hesitant to use this app only because of different reviews about it. Is there a way to book an actual biometrics even if I was only invited to use IDV app?
Thank you guys in advance.
Have a lovely day xx

Decision on trying this rests with you.
You won't be needing the appointment.ljdebenedictis wrote: ↑Fri Jul 01, 2022 5:51 pmAmazonianX wrote: ↑Tue Jun 28, 2022 3:09 pmCan not recall if when told to use IDV App you can still book for biometrics appointment.

Hi there.
I submitted everything I need to submit through IDV app few days ago. I managed to book biometrics on the 21/07/22 which I believe I wont be needing but I originally booked it as a back up in case they call me and ask for biometrics.
I wonder if do I need to cancel this now or should I wait for few weeks and see if they call me and will require biometrics?
Thanks
