Re: Legalised copy of passport

I need your advice:

I know in the past people were submitting legalized copy of the passport with EEA2 application, stating in the cover letter that they have to travel.

now I've heard from a solicitor, that starting from 1st June 2009 UKBA will not accept applications with just legalized copies, they will reject immediately such applications. I've made some research on the internet, but couldn't find such news on UKBA and any other source.

Can someone confirm if it's true or not?
If this is true, people who need to travel for job will be in serious trouble.

Thanks
Thats correct.. you need to provide all original documents.

http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitec ... ns-june-09

Make your application with original passports, after receiving your COA. get back your passport from HO, mail to this id

hi i'm not going to lie to you i don't have any idea about your case,but what i know if your wife exerce her treaty right you are entitle to stay and work in uk.
as your wife study here you must provede them with
-a scool's letter confirming that she is enrolled and start and end date of course
-evidence of funds(bank statement)
or
econocmiclly self sufficient;
as you are the hasband who supporting the eea family number you should provide
-evidence of your employement and bank statement
you can check all this in the eea2 application and the quidance note.

Hi Reda,

Thanks for the message as you say, my wife surely exercise her treaty rights by undergoing a study and i have sent out all the information to homeoffice lately including my bank statement and my employment details..

After looking into this forum on sunday i sent an immediate complaint email and guess what..? They have replied for my complain saying they have allotted my complain to a case worker and should be hearing from them within 21 days.. if not they have asked me to contact them again..

Keeping my fingers crossed....let me see what luck our UK sunshine weather brings on...

anyother suggestion from you..

Ilaya,

You may receive a letter from your case worker asking for your latest pay slips or employment letter. So, be ready to send it immediately thru special delivery.
I have received my RC with 10 days after sending those additional documents to HO. And we applied 30 Sep 2008.
All the best…you will receive with in June :D

Hi all,
I have read the following from UKBA website:

http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/howtoapply ... snationals

as

Can my family members work in the UK?
A family member of an EEA national who intends to travel with them or join them in the UK can work without a work permit. Family members are generally not required to register under the Worker Registration Scheme or comply with the special requirements for Bulgarian and Romanian workers. The EEA national must be a 'qualified person' in the UK.
Back to questions

Do my family members need to register with the police?
Family members do not need to register with the police.
Back to questions

Do my family members need a residence card?
Your non-EEA family members can, if they want to, apply to the UK Border Agency for a residence card once they are in the UK. They do not have to do this - it simply confirms that they have the right to live with you in the UK because you have a right of residence.

Non-EEA family members who have a valid residence card do not need to get an EEA family permit each time they enter the UK after travelling abroad.


So like EEA Nationals ,for Family members also its not mandatory to apply..Whats your views???

By the way I too am in the same sitiation like you all.I applied for EEA2 on OCT 2008 and still waiting.Can anyone share the Successful complaint letter Format please to vpp1981@hotmail.com

Cheers

can somebody please advice me on what i need to do next (plan C) and contacting solvit could speed them up and what is the phone number for solvit
i think plan C : you should wait , did u apply by post or with a lawyer ?
or u can still contact solvit using their online site ,google it

As I've stated in my post, i haven't come across an experience similar to yours, though a good number of EEA2 applicants who are family members of qualified persons have experienced delays. Never the less, if its true, this kind of delay is out of proportion, And the manner in which your application is being handled seems to deffer from the usual way EEA applications are being handled. If at all, it would have been a home visit, other than an interview with your spouse! By the time of your application, had your spouse worked for 12 months+? Where you issued with the normal COA?

Hi..anyone want to make a complain please use the below email address. I received reply in 2 days time and a apology letter from home office confirming they have allocated my case to a case worker...

These all happen from May 31st to June 6th 2009...i am seeing some progress..hope it may work for you guys too..I think on the complain email it is better to mention all your details and also your application ref no's etc..Good luck for anybody who uses it..

I recently clocked the 6 months limit and used the email above to complain a week ago and got a reply by post today.

Well, the Lady in charge of my case sent me a letter claiming she sent me a letter to my home address in January 2009 requesting for further documents to support my application.Wow, that is only 1 month after receiving my COA and 2 month after sending my EEA application.So she means my application would have been processed 2 months after submitting if I supplied all relevant documents.(Note I did not send my passport and my wife's)

Well, I do not believe her.Simply because I did not get her letter and there is no way an EE2 application is processed after 2 months,looking at complains from this forum.Someone should prove me wrong.

She even sent me a file copy of the letter sent to me.Dated January.She also demanded passports originals and latest payslip within 14 days.I will send them over.This is some fantastic development on my case.

However I cannot believe she sent me a letter asking for these same documents in January, only 2 months after my application.No way.
