on my wifes visa i marked that my wife was refused a uk visa, I did however highlight that she has a right of residence in the uk as a zambrano carer (Ireland are well aware of this route). But for yourself (children are not british) I dunno how this will help.
However, Previous immigration history shouldn't be taken into account - unless it is against the public interest (such as immigration fraud etc) and even then must be proportionate.
The UK refusing a visa CANNOT go against your wife. DO NOT LIE on the application - as this CAN go against you. Just be straight, honest and clear, and don't volunteer more information than is required.
To be clear:
Submit the following:
*Proof of ID for wife and kids (passports).
*Proof of relationship: Marriage / Birth certificates
*Copy of EU passport (prob best to get a certified copy from job centre - go in and tell em its for a job 'up north' or something, n they'll copy n stamp it for free. - I only sent a normal colour copy of my passport but we also sent our daughters british passport.)
* Letter outlining that kids / wife are going to excersise treaty rights in ireland with you - an eu citizen.
the visa application asks for proof of entitlement to return to country of departure - this would be their pakistani (?) citizenship. - however, they will be able to go to the uk with you via singh route - ireland want to make sure you wont be illegal there.
there is no requirement of showing expenses / money to a direct family member - this only comes into play for such as parents or brothers / sisters.
