3.3 Applicants not producing a passport

We may exercise discretion and issue a residence card where the applicant proves
his/her identity by producing a Home Office issued identity card (i.e. an ARC card) or
where the applicant produces another form of conclusive evidence that s/he is a family
member of the EEA national (see 4.3 below).

Where an applicant produces a Home Office issued identity card that corresponds to
the person named on the marriage certificate, we can be satisfied that the individual is
the family member of an EEA national and, provided we are satisfied that the marriage
is not one of convenience (see Chapter 5) and we are satisfied that the EEA national is
a qualified person or has a permanent right of residence under the 2006 Regulations,
we would issue a residence card. Where a residence card is issued on this basis, the
applicant‟s previous immigration files should be checked for confirmation that the
applicant is the rightful holder of the Home Office issued identity card.
