Hi all,
I am an EEA national hoping to get my dependent parent into the UK.
I currently live in my native country. I am planning to move to the UK soon to become a qualified person.
I have started an online application form for my dependent non-EU parent to better understand what is required when we are ready to apply.
On the EEA national page within the application form, there is a question:
What is the EEA National Registration Certificate number for the EEA National?
There is a star beside it, indicating that it is a mandatory question. I think this is what they mean by "EEA National Registration Certificate": https://www.gov.uk/government/publicati ... orm-eea-qp
Does this mean then that in order to apply for the visa for my parent I necessarily need to first get an EEA National Registration Certificate?
I was under the impression that this isn't a mandatory thing, but the form seems to imply so.
If it is indeed mandatory, could someone share experience in terms of how long it takes to get such a Certificate?
Thanks
PS I am new to the forum, so please excuse me if I posted in the wrong place. Thanks again.
