Thanks for your qiick reply yes garry,s lahore just take the application check the document and supporting documents required take bio metric and then forward the application to BHC IslamabadJambo wrote:I believe previous reports have said that Gerry's claimed that EEA visa are treated as settlement visas (which is against EEA regulations). However, Visa processing times on UKBA website seems to indicate that most of the applications are dealt within 15 days (there is only data for Islamabad, not Lahore. It could be that all EEA applications are forwarded to Islamabad for a decision).
I would first try to contact Gerry's and if not satisfied complain to the BHC.

I am from Pakistan and my wife is an EEA national. The British High Commission in Islamabad is the most careless European Mission. The had once lost my passports with my entire travelling history, as a Pakistani, i hope you understand what travelling history means, so time frames on their website are not trustworthy for me .
My personal experience is to get a Schengen Visa, its simple fast and easy and then drive to Calais and ask them for code 1A stamp by presenting your Marriage certificate and Birth Certificate of any of your child.
Hope this would be able to help and reduce your stress.

Hi Stars,
Regarding loss of passport, I applied for a UK Business Visitor Visa, I always had a UK visa (issued at different occasions) since childhood, but when it expired i reapplied in June 2009 and the time frames on the BHC Islamabad's website said that straight forward applications, which my application certainly was, are dealt in 15 days. The first response i got after several attempts to reach the Visa Section was March 2010 by a very rude lady informing that they had lost my passport and they are ready to pay me passport replacement fee. Also to note that i had a multi entry Schengen Visa in the passport they lost.
Regarding the easiest embassy, i personally have been traveling to Europe since ages, and had a Schengen Visa even before i got married, however a friend of mine applied at the German embassy with his wife's passport marriage certificate and a letter from wife that her husband will be accompanying her during her visit to Germany, it took 15 days and they got a Visa. So try German Embassy, but still don't loose hope for your EEA FP. Good Luck

Thanks SAlmaan but i dont wanna give up on EEA fp for uk coz our main destination is uk im still waiting reply from uk and its not easy to go germany and spend there six months and then move to uk its long waitsaalman wrote:Well as i told you, a friend has a recent good experience with German embassy, book an appointment online, fill in the form and visit the German Embassy in Islamabad for submission, you will know the outcome there and then, also by visiting the Embassy you will have the chance to explain your position.
I am sure, you will be able to get your EEA FP, i just responded to your question, but why would you have to spend 6 months in Germany? is your spouse british, if she is! you shouldnt have applied for EEA FP on the first place, and if she isnt a British Citizen, then you do not need to spend 6 months in Germany, just bring your Marriage certificate with you at the Calais/Dunkirk ferryport and ask for a Stamp Code1A, i had personally done that.stars wrote:Thanks SAlmaan but i dont wanna give up on EEA fp for uk coz our main destination is uk im still waiting reply from uk and its not easy to go germany and spend there six months and then move to uk its long waitsaalman wrote:Well as i told you, a friend has a recent good experience with German embassy, book an appointment online, fill in the form and visit the German Embassy in Islamabad for submission, you will know the outcome there and then, also by visiting the Embassy you will have the chance to explain your position.
Thanks for reply salmaan no my wife is dutch citizen and she is in uk now working and going school do you think there ll be any issue as my wife is dutch and if we go to german embassy for schengen visa they can ask question that why we are getting schengen visa from german embassy why not from netherlands embassy as no border control between germany and netherlandssaalman wrote:I am sure, you will be able to get your EEA FP, i just responded to your question, but why would you have to spend 6 months in Germany? is your spouse british, if she is! you shouldnt have applied for EEA FP on the first place, and if she isnt a British Citizen, then you do not need to spend 6 months in Germany, just bring your Marriage certificate with you at the Calais/Dunkirk ferryport and ask for a Stamp Code1A, i had personally done that.stars wrote:Thanks SAlmaan but i dont wanna give up on EEA fp for uk coz our main destination is uk im still waiting reply from uk and its not easy to go germany and spend there six months and then move to uk its long waitsaalman wrote:Well as i told you, a friend has a recent good experience with German embassy, book an appointment online, fill in the form and visit the German Embassy in Islamabad for submission, you will know the outcome there and then, also by visiting the Embassy you will have the chance to explain your position.
Thanks Salmaan lets see what happen i hope i dont have to go europe at first place uk ll be better later on i can go for visit to eu anywaysaalman wrote:No they will not ask this from you and they actually should not, its your choice to apply to whatever place you intend to travel to. But in the worst case, if they ask, you tell them that your wife no longer lives in Netherlands, and she is visiting some family and friends in Germany and you intend to accompany her. that would be all.
Why do you think you need to spend six months in Germany?stars wrote:Thanks SAlmaan but i dont wanna give up on EEA fp for uk coz our main destination is uk im still waiting reply from uk and its not easy to go germany and spend there six months and then move to uk its long wait
