when they told me that, it took 2 wks for me to get the RC in the post so u just have to wait. like your wife was told they r not allowed to disclose the outcome on the phonejvgallegos wrote:I really don't know what to do now.
Today my wife (EU citizen) called the Home Office regarding my EEA2 application. She was told that my passport was sent to the office in charge of, and I quote, "updating the passport". When my wife asked them if that meant that the RC was approved, the nice lady said that they were not able to provide that information by phone.
The lady also said that she had no idea of how long it would take until I receive my passport back.
Should I try to call them tomorrow again and try to find out what's going on or should I just wait until something happens? Any suggestions welcome!
Cheers!
No. As she only live about 45mins drive away from me as she is in Northern Ireland and am by the border side of Rep. of Ireland. what advice do you have for me folks?wet26 wrote:Did you and your wife live in Ireland together for any period of time?laspo24 wrote:Hi all,
Seeking an advice please. I got married to my wife who happen to be British but hold dual Nationality as Mother is from Ireland. So we got married in may but we have been in relationship for more than two years as we have our baby who is going to be 5months in few weeks time. I used to reside in Ireland as asylum seeker but she lives and work in Northern Ireland. So about to apply for the EEA2 as i have moved to the UK. Any chances of getting my residency?
Thanks
Is that for Laila or for me please?Commonwealth wrote:Hi Laia,
Hope this helps, what u need to do is to apply in republic with ur wife irish passport because she is working in UK. So, all u need to submit with the application are ur wife contract of employment, payslip, EEA2 app, ur passport.
Option 2. U can move to northern ireland and apply in UK and i think this is the best option because ur wife is working in UK. all u need is her irish passport,payslip n ur passport. Remember this is an advice.
Yes but in her Family house consist of Mother, she, myself and our baby. But have no bill on my name yet. any problem with that too?Commonwealth wrote:Hi laspo, that was for u not laila. If u have moved to northern ireland, better apply in UK bcos ur wife is working there. R u both residing in uk now.
I know you are passing an advice to me... same advice I got from Law centre NICommonwealth wrote:First thing submit an EEA2 app with ur passport, marriage cert, ur wife irish passport and contract of employment plus pay slip. Those are the basic requirements. If they want anything else they will inform u. Make sure u use ur wife irish passport. Later u can apply for tv licence n etc as proof of address but not necessary now.
Remember, this is an advice.
hi,laia wrote:Hi everyone,
We posted our application on the 4th of January.
We got our Certificate of Application on the 17 of January.
We have been calling the HO for the last two weeks, since it's now been more than 6 months, and all they can say is that is still "under consideration" and they don't know how much longer we'll have to wait. When I reminded them that it was supposed to be resolved WITHIN 6 months, they kind of changed the word within for more than 6 months. And what we are wondering now is how much more??? We need to travel in august and don't know what to do.
Anyone has got any idea of how long the process might take?
Any advice?

The same thing happened to me. When called the HO a week after I had requested my passport back by email, my request wasn't in their system.Glauco wrote:I applied for EEA4 on the 15th of March, completing 4 months now.
On the 4th of July I requested my passport back by email and it seems my request was ignored. I called them 3 days ago and they didn't have any details of my request on their system, so they put a new request. And 3 days later I received received the passports back home by special delivery.
The letter tells to not send the passport back until requested by a caseworker.
They are breaking EU law. Get onto your local MP, complain to Solvit, and write a letter of complaint to the European Commission. Also, see if you can get a solicitor to write a strongly worded letter *reminding* the Home Office of their legal obligation to resolve all applications within 6 months.laia wrote:Hi everyone,
