In light of Dereci i think the HO will not be eager to issue you a COA or a right of residence under zambrano, but taking into account zh Tanzania, article 8 you may succeed in getting a DLR.

Regulations have not been put in place yet to give effect to Zambrano, it was promised that it will be in place by the end of last year at the earliest. But this did not materialise.

I will advice you to relax and exercise patience

The thing about the Deceri judgement is, it establish that if one of the parents are UK national, then Zanbrano cannot apply as child will stay with british national.

However it states that in such cases regards should be had to ECHR(article 8) or charter if fundamental rights which will involve consideration to the best interest of the child.

I wish you success and would advice not to worry about this until legislation are put in place.

You solicitor should be able to handle these issues.

I believe you forwarded the right application and few months back i would not have doubted your chances of success.

You have taken the right step and even if the application is refused, you will have a right of appeal as it is an EEA decision, even though i am minded that provisions have yet to be made in the EEA regulations for Zambrano cases.

At appeal you can put forwarded points that are favourable to you including best interest of children. It may not get to that as Home Office may issues DLR given the potential success at an appeal.

You will not have qualified on the basis of your wife as she has never resided, to my knowledge, as a worker or self employed person in an EEA state in which you resided with her as man and wife.

I did not get you wrong . I believe your wife has never worked in an EEA country besides the UK. If that is the case, you do not qualify to apply on EEA 2 on the basis of your relatioinship.

I understand she worked in UK, but she did not work for example in France or Germany and you never resided with her in any of these countries

Dereci is going to be challenged because it contains two logical inconsistencies (at least).
The first is that Zambrano talks about denial of rights (plural) conferred by EU Citizenship.The right to reside in the EU as a whole is not the only such right, Freedom of Movement is another.
Secondly, national law in the Czech Republic (and perhaps also in other states) recognises parents as family members with a right of residence. So any parent of any EU citizen child can live in the Czech Republic with that child. So no Zambrano child would ever have to leave the whole territory of the EU.

Lets just hope for the best for you... a response at least. If its your COA, that means your application meets the initial scope of Zambrano and when the regulations are amended to include the Zambrano judgement, you can look forward to hopefully being issued with the RC. All the best!

There is a body of caselaws developing in this area of law, so you should not necessarily get upset with your solicitor.

I am sure he was working in your best interest, and felt that was the best route to take, but then Dereci came, and sort of diluted Zambrano a little bit, but it does not mean it made Zambrano meaningless.

I believe people in your situation, should demand a right of appeal from the HO. This idea of Sole carer or responsibility, was neither derived from Zambrano neither did it show up in Dereci.

It is a concept developed by UKBA, in my view for internal consumption.

Try and proceed with JR, and get them to give you a right of appeal.

If you proceed with that appeal, you will be able to further the argument of ZH Tanzania, Article 8 and other authourity that will support your case.

If you apply for DLR, there is a possibility it will be refused without a right of appeal, but if you insist you have a right to an independent review of the Secretary of state refusal, as you feel this breaches your right under community treaties, you will then be in a stronger position.

Try not to get too upset with the lawyer, and stay calm and think carefully.

I will repeat the advice i gave a few months back.

hi Obie and Justice12, I also received my letter from them rejecting my application with the same reasons as yours. My lawyer is actually good but he said the court would agree with the HO if we were to take it there. Hes arranged an appointment to meet him so we could discuss what next we can apply for which is Article 8 but he said its a long process but better chances. Dont know what to do also. Any advice people.? He did mention Dereci and he said there is no need putting any Zambrano application forward to them that we should go straight to Article 8. but i would try and tell him to try what you said about making another application under zambrano and getting a right to appeal and maybe further the argument with ZH Tanzania. Any more advice?

JR is Judicial review. Using FLR in my view is a waste of money and might not achieve much. They could simply reject such application, tell you to go back to your country and give you no right of appeal. This is what they have been doing so far, and they are permitted to do so.

You could certainly try, but it is not certsin to succeed.

Dereci judgement provides assessment under Artiicle 7 of Fundamental rights or Article 8 of Convention rights, which has to be considered, even if there is no removal.

Furthermore i believe the word sole carer did not originate from Zambrano or Dereci.
