my husband is an EU citizen and my eea2 application is still under process. i urgently needs to travel out of the country as i have lost my dad. my work permit is now expired, it then means that i currently do not have a valid visa.
Please i really do need an advice on how i can return back to the uk as my work permit has ran out, I read on another forum that if i apply for a family permit abroad to come back in that it will cancel my eea2 application.
Also i need advice on the best way to ask for the return of my passport.
I would appreciate anyone's advice.
thank you all.

If you can work, I don't see why you cannot study.es1985 wrote:Hello guys, it seems my question havent been answered yet anyway, i was asking if i could study (part-time at university) while waiting for my RC. i know i can work but i would like to know if i could study as well. Please help!!
Thanx.
Yes call Home Office immediately to request return of your passport. Did you receive the Certificate of Application for your EEA2 application and it states that you're free to live and work in the UK while your application is being considered? If so, you don't need to apply for a Family Permit to return to the UK. It is better if you apply for it becase then they must allow you in, but if you have CoA and travelling with your EEA partner then the CoA is also sufficient. I requested my passport back to go to France with my husband, I didn't have time to apply for a Family Permit in France before returning to the UK, at the border I showed the Immigration officier our marriage certificate, the CoA (that states I am free to live and work in the UK) and my husband was with me and they didn't ask any questions just let me in. Had to fill in landing card though as I didn't have the Residence Card/Family Permit.sanu84 wrote:Sorry to hear about your father.biza wrote:hi all,

-Applying for a Family Permit won't cancel your EEA2 application. Some EEA2 applicants were able to come back to the UK without a FP. But it doesn't mean that you will be able to do the same thing.
-The best way to ask for your passport back is by phone.
If you are the family member of an EU citizen who is working in the UK, the you can do basically anything a British citizen could do.es1985 wrote:Hello guys, it seems my question havent been answered yet :( anyway, i was asking if i could study (part-time at university) while waiting for my RC. i know i can work but i would like to know if i could study as well.

The most important thing at the border is to be able to prove you're a family member of an EEA national i.e. marriage certificate or other documents you have, and the CoA. CoA shows them you have an active applicaiton with the Home Office, the immigration officer at the border will be able to see this in his computer, so will be fine.
But if you're an unmarried partner i.e. applying as an extended family member then I don't think you will be able to return without a Famiy Permit
Sanu thanks for responding to my post. You mentioned that some EEa2 applicats are able to return to UK without the FP, how do they go about it. i have got my coa and wont be travelling with my husband. any advice will be mostly appreciated.sanu84 wrote:Sorry to hear about your father.biza wrote:hi all,

It depends somewhat on your citizenship. If you do not require a visa to travel to the UK, e.g. if you are a citizen of Japan or Canada, then it is pretty straight forward.biza wrote:Sanu thanks for responding to my post.

If you are travelling with your EU citizen spouse in Europe then there are also options outlined in https://eumovement.wordpress.com/2010/0 ... to-travel/ The problem is that this can be a stressful way to travel and getting past the airline is often the hardest part.

Is the number, on your COA, says : "our Ref:...." or it says case ID number?
Where it says our Reference : its blank
where its says Case ID : there is a number, its 9 digits starts with 012
where it says Your reference: its blank
How about yours? am not sure about allocating to case worker, maybe they serve on first comes first served basis am not sure
