A written complaint is more likely to lead to the correct answer. Those in call centres may not be familiar with the law. There is a time limit to complaints. If you were to leave it too long, it might not be considered. Sleep on it! As long as obtaining the EEA2/COA is not inconvenienced, I won't ...

Complaining would not result in any sanctions against yourselves, but may lead to better treatment of others in the future. They might issue a letter effectively ...

note: the only reasons to apply for EEA2 would be 1) if you need proof of her legal residence (ie needs to work etc), as she would have problems finding employment without proof of the entitlement to work (note: she could be self employed etc) 2) To have proof of id etc on one of the Home Office's ...

So the "21 SEP 2013" she got on her Passport is going to have no meaning whatsoever? Will she get no penalty for overstaying if I apply for her EEA2, say, in October/November? :shock: I think it would have meaning if she was not a family member of an EEA national.

Very confused about EEA2! O_o

Hi there! My name is Sam, I'm an Italian Aerospace Engineer. After 2 years of work in Singapore I've received very interesting job offers in the UK, and I decided to move here. I booked 3 weeks in a nice hotel in Birmingham and brought my non-EU wife with me. Upon arriving in Heathrow I could easily ...
