hello guys,
need advice.
I have pr, since dec 2015. I want to apply for uk naturalisation , as people on different forums says you have to complete 12 months on PR before you apply . But some saying it is has to be 6 years since you get married to eu what ever come first, 6 years or 12 months with pr. I hope you understand my question !!!

Finger cross. As your case, You already submitted your application so there is nothing you can do about it at the moment than to sit back and be praying for the best.
@ally007 how are u? I just wanted to ask you , if u AV received ur pr .its Over 5month now that I sent my application . Waiting is killing.

Hi Akz,

Thanks for the update. Yes, I have gone through your previous post. I see HO wanted prove for the missing invoices for your wife and since you have provided that. I believe it will go in your favor.

Why can't HO request for this before making a decision rather than refusing?

I have sent as much documents as I can to prove the Payslip's & P'60 I submitted were genuine.

Also my wife was on maternity after our first child and got pregnant again after 4 months. This was the reason she was on maternity for 20 months. I submitted copies of my children birth certificate to the HO during our application & also to the tribunal.

Hi Akz,

Did HO mention about your wife not working during maternity or this was a general discussion @ the appeal?

Please kindly give me a clear review of your appeal process..i.e
when refusal letter was sent
when you appealed
when a hearing was chosen
etc

I want to use this as a time line guide for my appeal.

Also, you didn't answer if you have applied for a Residence Card since your refusal.

Please keep me posted and I will suggest you call the Tribunal office. I did yesterday to confirm my appeal was received. They were very friendly and helpful.

Thanks
Yes I have applied for Rc card in July my time line for that is :
EEA2 application

07/07/15 applied
15/07/15 Received by HO
27/07/15 Biometrics letter received (dated 23 July); enrolled at the day
14/08/15 -August CoA (dated 09 Aug)
RC Received 02/12/2015



My PR (EEA4) card refused on 15/05/2015,

I appealed through solicitor in June 2015 and we got hearing date on 28/01/2016.Now waiting for my PR (EEA4) Appeal decision.

The main issue in my refusal was the gap including maternity leave, but in appeal hearing the judge and home office did not talk about maternity leave they only discuss a gap we have in 2011 for which we did not sent the invoices and also we mention in our statement that we were on one month holiday during that time.

Everything will clear out once i will receive the decision as either they will allow or if not then on what bases they will refuse which i will inform you about. in the meantime wish me good luck

Regards
akz
Hi Akz,

Have you finally heard from the tribunal regarding your appeal?

Also, i would like to know if the COA you received on 14/08/2015 after applying for your RC stated you could work whilst your application is been decided?

Please kindly let me know.

Thanks.

J

I sent a joint application for PR (I am EU) my husband (non EU) on 01/02/16, home office received it on 03/02/16 but money hasn't come out of my account yet nor my husband received the biometrics letter
looking this forum I understand that most of cases money comes out within 2 / 3 days.
Called the helpline today and they said I have to wait for up to 4 weeks for the money come out and there is nothing I can do at the moment. home office will send me a letter if there is any problem
has anyone have hear about this problem before?
thank you

Hi traci,
Its sometimes happens like that actually.
There is someone on the forum, it took longer than expected before his account was charged. The most important thing is they have received your application.
Mine was charged 2nd day application was received.
Mayb give them till next week or so.
All the best

Good afternoon!
I would just like to know what's going to happen to non-Eu applicants if the Uk decide to leave the EU?
I think it's very important question if anyone can bring more light that would be great.
