Sounds encouraging.

Could you be kind enough and share with us which papers you submitted with your application?

Thanks a lot for this update - may I ask one more specific thing?

Sorry for being a pain about this detail, but this is important for those who are not as lucky as you going through the process without trouble:

Did you supply any specific evidence about your stays/visits to Portugal?

Otherwise I assume they still cling to their (illegal) "prior residence" rule, but saw from your passports that such "residences" took place.

Thanks!

It is always a pleasure to help, but we went through a lot of stress with this whole thing.

Yes you are ritght! I was there on one occasion for 7 days. And two other times my wife and I were there for 4 days.
There are 3 Portuguese in/out stamps on my passport.
Besides that we've got married in 1999, which is a long time ago and its shows no marriage of convenience. I think!

All the best!
