Please don't bother to transfer your residence to another passport because it will take you more than six months to do it.
Is like you are making a fresh application, it's better for you to carry both passport when you are travelling.

Transfer of residence card or stamp
If you are issued with a new passport and you want your residence card or family member residence stamp transferred to that passport, you will need to make a new application. You must complete the appropriate application form and provide the required supporting documents

Thank you "jajanana" I called the Home Office and they said you don't to transfer it on to passport carry both passport and the residency will be OK.

But my bigger issue is my full name, in my national passport I have three names and in the residency document is only two names for example on my residency card (John William) but on passport is (John William Dykie). I have a letter from the embassy of my country states that I am known as both.

The HO said they can't tell me what to do, it will be up to the immigration officer to decide to let you enter the UK on the way back!!

So I have decided to go and hope for the best that I won't face a fight with the immigration officers.

Do EEA2 holders have to queue as other or EU citizens' queue at the UK airports and have their passport stamped every single time they enter the UK?
Does anyone know any official quide or any web link where I can get some info?

Thanks...

There's no need to post this twice, in unrelated threads...

You can use the EU queue. Passports of residence card holders are not allowed to be stamped.

Any official source & link?

Used to be in the Border Force Operations Manual. The stamp rules originate from Regulation 11(3).

Apparently, the manuel is currently being updated.

You moved to the UK. That is, you just went across the border? With no visa?

Or did you get an EEA Family Permit issued by the British Embassy in Dublin?

HI everyone!
Could anyone help me to clarify one point for myself..
I'd be very grateful!
What should my fiance apply for EEA1 or EEA3 if he (is Italian) has been living and working in the UK 15 years in support of my application on EEA family permit?
And how long does it take to get it in real or what would be quicker to get?
Thanks in advance.

New Version of EEA4 application form to be used from 30 November 2010 onwards "following a request from the Parliamentary and Health Ombudsman that 'Section 6 - documents and photographs' be made clearer".

The HO have new EEA4 forms. they have added sections for retention of rights and Comprehensive sickness insurance here. Maybe this would make the applications for PR based on retention much more straightforward compared to the grey areas previously.

And they also have a section now asking for absences. Interestingly there is also this bit now in the ECIS.

ECIS, Chapter 6 6.1 wrote:In contrast to the policy governing applications made under the Immigration Rules an application cannot be rejected because the form has not been used or has not been fully completed.

Likewise for the residence card application in 5.1. I haven't seen that before.

Also new forms for EEA2 include question:

"3.7 Do they also hold British citizenship?"

Seems that they have considered McCarthy Judgement

Is this only detrimental if a dual national living in his/her country of nationality has never exercised free movement rights?

So say if an EEA national exercising treaty rights in the UK eventually becomes British, he/she doesn`t lose the ability to utilise their EEA nationality alongside being British?

Have I understood this right?

McCarthy has never work in her life, even if she was an Irish living in Britain, she has never exercising treaty right as a worker or self sufficient or the others, she rely on the tax payers money all her life. If she has ever work she may claim she was working in Britain as an Irish but she has nothing to claim about exercising treaty right even though she has never move, if she had worked she may also say her parent move her to Britain were she was born and as an Irish working in Britain. But nothing to claim about for all the long years of her case that she has ever work even for a month. I wonder the kind of solicitors that deceived her to that extent, well, they were paid by the Legal Aid, because someone not working cannot afford a solicitor so she is qualify for a legal aid. Tax Payers Money.

I sent my EEA2 application a couple of weeks ago but have just only realised that I sent the old forms in and not the new ones (June 2011)!!!
Would they reject my application? I called UKBA and they said to wait for the caseworker's reply and do nothing at the moment...

The guidelines are clear and also the law doesn't enforce a particular form. Your application should thus be assessed on the basis of the supporting documents you have provided.
