No, no. The signature on the letter is quite discernible, and it is not Santa.

No, I did not hire a solicitor. The case is quite straightforward. As for the difficulties self-employed sometimes go through, the story of my first and second attempt to receive a Residence Card (while I was still married and did not think of getting divorce yet) is here:

By the way, I received both letters, the generic letter confirming my status as a family member and the correct letter confirming I retained right of residence.


Here is the letter:

Dear_______
Re__________

I am returning your documents which features an endorsement confirming your status.

This document has been issued to you on the basis that you have retained the right of residence following your divorce from your European Economic Area (EEA) national spouse. At present you only claim to remain in the United Kingdom is that you are exercising Treaty Rights in the UK as though you were an EEA national.

This Directorate should be notified immediately if you decide to leave teh United Kingdom, or ceases to exercise a Treaty right here.


A the bottom left: ICD.1100 (the code of the form, I guess).

Does Nationality really matters or if you meet the requiremen? this the second time i am seeing same question in this forum, i dont think nationality do matter unlike someone was saying bcos he/she is a nigeria she is worried about the EEA2 application with the HO

Pls guys answer does nationality matter in EEA application????

[Davmck70]

I suppose I would be right in saying that all applications are unfairly treated as an Indian, Nigerian or Pakistani Non-EEA application tends to raise flags due to these citizens determination to stay back in UK.
Please do not get me wrong, the proper procedures and policies are followed but in cases whereby for example a 32 year old Nigerian man is getting married to a 51 year old Italian woman, flags are raised all over the place despite the fact that it is a real marriage.

They will question the status of the Non-EEA applicant before application and in most cases deny the application. The onus is on the appellant to proof how genuine the marriage is. I hope that answers your question

[Nimitta]

Djbrett2, why did you ask the question? I am not sure how it is relevant.

By the time I applied for ROR, I already had a Residence card, had lived in the UK for over 2 years and had been married by the time of divorce for 16 years. How my nationality and my ex-spouse nationality could possibly be relevant?

I agree with Davmck70 that if marriage looks suspicious, nationality of spouses won't matter. If it does not look suspicious, again, nationality of spouses won't matter.
