Yes, I know for ordinarly visa application. But I am talking as spouse of Eu citizen. Because I understand according to Eu Law on freedom of movement of Eu citizens and their family members that bank statements should not be demanded from Eu spouse.zafarzafar wrote:yes bank statement is important part of your application.
the visa officer wants to see the funds maintained in ur account and he wana see how would u afford urself. if u don't have funds in ur account, u can buy traveler cheques to show and than see it back to the bank with a minimum deduction.
Yes you are right its just not a normal visa application.koded wrote:I applied for visa in Irish embassy in Sweden as an EU spouse and they asking me to provide my bankstatement. Meanwhile, I will be moving to Ireland with my wife.
I want to know if anyone here have the same experience and did you submit the bank statement?
NB: Evidence that the EU Citizen spouse is exercising their EU Treaty Rights is not required in your case, since your spouse is not yet in Ireland and will be entering at the same time as you, which, for the first three months, shall not be subject to any conditions or formalities other than the requirement to hold a valid passport or National ID card.The Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service wrote:Spouse/Child
If you are the non EEA spouse or the child (under 21 years) of an EU Citizen or the child of the non EEA spouse and wish to join/accompany the EU Citizen in Ireland the following documents are required:
* Application form.
* Passport.
* Marriage Certificate – evidence (apostilled document) that marriage has been registered in applicant’s country of origin/residence.
* Birth Certificate (long form) for children under 21 years, parental consent, national identity card (signed if required).
* Evidence that the EU Citizen spouse is exercising their EU Treaty Rights by being employed/self employed in the State or engaged in a valid vocational training programme or has sufficient financial resources and comprehensive sickness insurance cover.

Would it kill you to give it to them?koded wrote:I still need some advice on what to do on this case. Ireland Embassy in sweden is still insisting that I should submit bank statement and comprehsive insurance. And I am only applying for entry visa and I am moving with my wife to Ireland. My wife is not living in Ireland we both live in sweden.
thanks for your contribution
If it speeds up the process, maybe just provide the relevant documentation?koded wrote: it will not kill but in every documentation there is expectation, for instance, in the case of bank statement they will expect you to have certain amount. and what if I am not living my money in a bank or what if I dont operate bank account in the country I apply for the visa.
Of course, if that is what is required then i must do everything to provide it. but in this case it shouldnt be part of the requirement for entry visa.
It's not relevant. That's the point.IrishTom wrote:If it speeds up the process, maybe just provide the relevant documentation?
