I got the COA this morning following my fresh application on the 22nd Oct....even though the case worker asked that I complete another one which was posted on Monday. This one is worded differently from the one I received in July. The one included the paragraph about taking up employment unlike the first one. This seems all positive and in good direction.

My question is could this COA be used to apply for provisional driving licence?

No. It needs to be a photo ID. The CoA doesn't fulfill any of those two requirements.

Good evening jambo. I was thinking the COA from home office with a valid passport can be used to process the provisional driving licence. A friend of mine said he used the coa and his valid nigerian passport and completed a form from post office and paid
Am not sure maybe £50 or 55.

Thanks

A passport is a photo ID and so can be used for provisional licence. A CoA on its own can't.

Gd morning topsibelle. Pls clarify further on d issue of processing provisional driving licence wit COA and valid passport. I woludnt wnt u to psy £50 and it ends up being futile. Frm wat I read on d application form. It stated residence status doc needs to be provided and I dnt tink the coa is a residence visa or document. I would appreciate ur feedback after deliberations frm other sources.

Nice day

OK, why not go to the post office with your passport and coa and see what they say? They would probably verify your ID n if need be, send your coa with the application to DVLA ... Just go and try, u have nothing to loose..

Hi Everyone, I am new on this thread. I need your help.

I am a Legal resident of Ireland, & I also have an Irish child. I am a single mother & I am working part time.

The father of my child is in the UK, he has seen his child once & recently just had a baby with another woman (both illegal). He wants to apply to get his citizenship under the Zambrano case.

His name is also not on the birth certificate nor on the passport. He has never supported the child in any way & never even bought her a thing since she was born.

I dont mind assisting him, if that will make him legal. I guess, I will first start by trying to include his name on her birth cert & changing her passport details too.

My Question: Can he apply in the UK without having to come to Ireland?
What will be required to apply? will the application be successful?

Thanks

Firstly he will not succeed as Zambrano is not applicable in his case, as the child is in Ireland and not Britain.

Secondly he will only qyalify under Chen, but that can only be possible if the child is in the UK, and secony the family unit can show they are self sufficient .

Thanks Obie

Is there any other route he could take? His family feels I am the one holding back his destiny & they believe I am the only one that can help because he has an irish child with me.

I there any other way I could help? maybe outside of Zambrano case? He mentioned he could file for it in UK without the child being physically in UK.

Absolute nonsense. The child has to be in UK. That is the whole essense of the right.

People with drive coaches and horses around UK immigration rules if he was correct.

He could go to Ireland and invoke Zambrano, or he can come to UK and you apply under Chen.

Thanks a mill. I appreciate your input.

He cant come to Ireland at the moment, well...he has a new baby with another woman..& that relationship is important. I wouldn't even want him to come & be a burden to myself & daughter.

Secondly, I cant move to UK with My child, we would be starting from scratch & I am not certain I want to do that for a man who hasn't cared for his child in 3 years.

So I guess, that's it for him then???

HOPO ARE NOT JOKING NOW,THEY WILL DO EVERYTHING TO DENIED ANYONE,PLAYING WAITING GAMES,LOOKING FOR LOOPHOLE TO DENIED YOU,PAID FOR A GOOD AND TRICKY LAWYER TO OPPOSE A CLEAN AND CLEAR CASE.

IM TALKING FROM EXPERIENCE,I SPEND ALMOST 1 HOUR IN HEARING ROOM FIGHTING MY CASE.

THEY WILL ACCUSE YOU OF MANIPULATING VALID EVIDENCE,IF YOUR LAWYER IS NOT STRONG (BIG PROBLEM)

Good day Emzmaroc, regarding adult dependant on zambrano application. You are required to prove beyond reasonable doubt why d adult cannot be self reliant. Medical records/relationship to the adult. Also you need written statements on ur behalf from social services and family friends. The packaging must be such dat to convince case workers regarding d dependency of the adult on your assistance/care. Wish u good luck
