EU3 refusal advise needed please

[logan1980]

I am a non EU and my wife is British citizen, we got married in 2006 and I got stamp 5 years stamp 4 eufam in 2008 , I applied for permanent residence card about six months ago and I received refusal letter yesterday. reason is that my wife did not work , study or do anything in last 5 years. I have a right of re consideration within 15 working days which I am going to.

I would like to know that if my appeal/consideration is refused too then what other option do I have ?? can I apply for eufam again ?

we claimed social money for about first 2 years and I have been working since last 3 years. and my wife found a job now and she is going to start work from next week too.

Thanks . any advice would be really appreciated.

Hi.they are gonna reject your appeal again.so my advice will be that you apply on form eu1 and send your wife current job documents .they will for sure issue you again stamp4 eu and you can apply for naturalisation also if you have completed your exact 60months period on stamp4

I went through the same, your best bid be to apply for eu1 again, they will refuse ur appeal for sure, because you wont be able to prove that she was excercising her right in last five years,
You should applu eu1 again, u would save a lot of time, thats my take on it

Hi Logan,
If you apply for a review of the decision they will issue you stamp 4 for 8months.
And you can use that to submit your naturalisation process. Same thing happened to me few weeks ago.
