Certificate of Approval was abolished so all you have to do is apply to get married like any other normal person. See Getting Married31gstonepark wrote:well as my partner is illegal here he obviously does not have a bank statement or any bills. before he been staying with his relatives and now with me. thats the problem. I think they UKBA be very strict on this and somehow feel that perhaps the marriage route is better. its just I wanted to wait to make the wedding reception perfect and now just go to the registrar to sign the docs.
what about certificate of approval? I read its been abolished as from May 2011. so what are we suppose to do now should we decide to marry? would we need to apply for some sort of permission or just go to registrar and book the time for the ceremony? are we to expect UKBA officers at our wedding? and what appl need to be filled after we get marriage certificate? can I apply myself or is it better to get a lawyer for it? thank you all for your replies xx
No, he does not apply on EEA4 because that is the form for permanent residence for an EEA national living in the UK. He will not be eligible for permanent residence until you are married 5 years and provided you are still living in the UK.31gstonepark wrote:Looking at the form I have the following questions to ask:-
I do not need a residence card of any sort. I already hold Permanent Residence Permit in the UK. I applied for it some two years ago and hold one for about 1 year and half.
Section 1- applicants details. Who is applicant? My illegal partner or me EEA national?
Section 2 – who should fill that part?
Section 3 – who fills this part?
Section 5 – is it where I need to give my employment details?
How to obtain evidence of comprehensive sickness insurance? What is it?
I just looked at form EEA4 and believe that this might be more appropriate in our case. I hold permanent residence card and my partner if we marry should be applying for one then? Kindly explain.
Form EEA4 is very similar to EEA2 so your replies to my questions above would apply. However in form EEA4 section 7 is not clear for me. What shall we state? I already gave all details to the UKBA when was applying for a permanent residence some time ago. And my partner has been illegal here for about 7 years. What shall I write?
Thank you again for all your replies. Wholeheartedly appreciated.
