If you're not in a rush, just complain at 30 days. If you meet the requirements, they can't refuse, unless you're a danger to public security etc.

Prepare an email that focuses on how you meet the requirements and showing the VERY few circumstances that they can use to refuse you. I mentioned in my cover letter with my partner's application that I had sought legal advice on the limited refusal reasons that can be used and asked them, if they were to refuse, to provide a detailed refusal letter which I would send to my solicitor to use in an appeal.

You could email them if you have their contact details. That can't do any harm. Worth a try!

Good luck!

Donot worry. Sometimes it takes them long time to verify every thing. You can check visa processing times in your country. They update every month. But if nothing happens in 30 days, you should contact them and ask them why it is taking long time as they deal with EEA family member applications with priority.

Supporting documents:

letter of how our relation started and evolved

Hello all,

could you please help me regarding the EEA family permit online application.

I am also confused with the 'EEA national' section: whose details has to be filled in here?
Name, DOB and Passport details of the EEA national?
Permanent address of the Non-EU national?

thanks,
S

So the validity of your EEA Family Permit is not 6 months? Very odd.

You should not have had to submit any documents other than two passports and a marriage certificate.

Hi, can you please help me with one section EA National - from the EEA family permit ?

They way they ask is not clear if the answer should be from the EEA national or applicant.

1. What is your permanent residential address and contact details ? (does it mean that you - applicant or you - the EEA nation ??

2. Who do you live with you at the moment and what is your relationship to them ?

From the form I understood that the applicant should fill this questions. Am I right?

Hello there... this was exactly the same question I found very conFUJING...
on Online Application, (type: EEA/Swiss Family Member)
the "EEA National" section is very very confusing.... I don't know who they are referring to ?? when they say "YOU"??? me ?? or my eu husband??????
especially those questions.

1. "What is your permanant residential address and contact details?"
ME????? or my HUSBAND???????(he's currently living in the UK)

2. "Is the UK address given the permanent address of the EEA National?"
Have they ever asked me "what is your UK ADDRESS" ?????

3. why they ask me that same question "How are you related to the EEA National?" twice??
4. Why they ask me same question with differenct grammar
"Is the EEA National currently living in the UK" & "Does the EEA National currently living in the UK" twice...????

I don't know what's up with this Online Application... guys all they told me about this inquiry was advise myself with VAF5 paper form. (which is very specific and crystal clear but i cannot applicate that guidance to the Online Form )...... seriously Help me Guys...

Thanks for the help.
