I am flying to the UK next week. I am Polish and I am going to look for a job there. My husband and son(Serbian) are going to join me in June when my son's schoolyear finishes. My problem is:they will apply for family permit one month after my arrival and at that time I won't have to exercise treaty rights, but the date when they want to enter is close to the end of 3 months. What is your advice? What is the best time for them to apply and enter the Uk? Thanks in advance!!!
You can apply for the EEA Family Permit today. It is good for travel in the next 6 months.

all right guys here is the reason why they refused me

it is rediculous but ok

they refused me because i havent showed them that i lived with my wife and they said i could show by providing documents such as bank statement for her and for me to show the same address.

Guys believe me i gave them mine and her bank statement are they blind or they lost them

Any way i have noticed that the woman who took the application from me she stamped my original bank statement and the stamp was (originals seen) i realised that she made a mistake she should stamp the photocopy and not the original. anyway no comment for me

it is opened for you guys,

Kind regards,
farouk

here is " You havent provided any evidence that you and your wife are living together or that you have lived together in the past either before or after your marriage. eg letters,cards, utility/other bills or bank/other statements addressed to you and/or your wife showing the same address in any country i am satisfied that you are party to a marriage of convenience and blabla bla

I therefore refuse your eea family permit because i am not satisfied that you meet all of the requirements of regulation 12 blabla"

this is it

There have been a number of people refused with no basis in the past. The IO would not appear to have a strong basis for suspecting that your marriage was one of convenience.

This case law will be of relevance. http://www.bailii.org/uk/cases/UKUT/IAC ... reece.html

You could appeal .

There is a possibility that the application will be reconsidered prior to the hearing and your EEA family permit will be issued.

it might be better if the op reapply for the familly permit,showing the join bills and any evidence from the time they lived together in london and from now in poland,if u are still in there,its free of charge and it could be better than appealing,because it could be overturned but i don't trust them to do the right thing as they are refusing peoples because they just can and they just look for any reason really to do so..
so my advise would be to submit the same form,the same evidence but also with the documents that they requested that u did not submit to prove your relationship..its the quickest and much better option in my view,because i can tell u right now,they will drag u all the way to the appeal date and at the end they will grant u the FP but are u willing to wait another 6-7 months to get it issued??i don't think so..!!
and we have seen some recent cases where it happened..!!see donald-f case.
just reapply a second time and point out in a covering letter that u are providing the missing document proving your residency history with your wife and it must be the sponsor who addresses the covering letter,i mean they could refuse u i think on that basis,that even thought u are the applicant but the eu citizen is the sponsor and they expect her the address the letter not u.
i hope u can sort out your issue soon,take care.

I would reapply and submit minimal core evidence that you are living together. Do not submit everything in the world.

Also send a letter from your wife stating that you are living together and asking the ECO to call if they have any more questions.

why don't u apply from algeria,u can still apply from there,its free and its not going to cost u a penny other than worldbridge fees,and then u can travel to poland or any other location and take the plane to the uk,but its important that u submit a letter confirming that u are traveling with her and that she wants to exercise her treaty rights in the uk,this way i think u can maybe have a shot at it.

http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/visas ... ableAnchor

if u click on this link it will take u to processing times in any country u want,choose algeria and check how long a family permit is processed..100% application processed in 5 days..very impressive..

I would assume they don't as the British missions would not be opened on weekends.

Guys it is really urgent

I have been refused the family permit for the second time
the reason:

" you have applied to visit the uk for 2 months as a spouse of an EEA national, i note that you have provided evidence of your spouse's polish passport and your marriage certificate, therefore i am satisfied that you are related as claimed. However i note that your spouse is resident in poland. There is no evidence that your spouse will indeed be travelling with you or you will be joining her in the uk"

In view of the above. I am not satified that your EEA national member is residing in the uk , or will be accompanying you to the uk within six months of the date of the application ......."

I therefore refuse your EEA family permit.....


Guys what should i do how can i give them evidence that we will be travelling together this is sick really

Please help me out Guys, my wife is depressed

Did you submit together with the application a statement from your wife that you will be travelling together? That should be enough evidence. There is no need to buy tickets or so.
