Hi All, am new to this forum and its interesting. Please can anyone help me with the phone number of d EEA route application office number so I can call them. The reason is this, I have received my COA after a month of submitting my application and they said I can't work, I have also not provided evidence of my relationship with an EU citizen. That they may contact me and this is take long. I have a British child and my partner is British, I have any other evidence they may require if I can get in touch with them as I don't want to over stay. Thanks. Tega

Why have you applied under EEA Regulations if your partner and child are British? Have you entered under Surinder Singh?

I have applied under the EEA route, with my child document but didn't include any of the dad. I came in as a student 4tier. Thanks

Apologies just learning how to use the PMs on the forum. Thanks

These posts aren't by PM, they're on the open forum where other members can also respond.

I still don't understand how you have applied for an EEA permit when you say that your child is British.

For immigration purposes, British citizens aren't considered to be EEA nationals.

Thanks. I applied as the mother of a British child, my partner advised me to since we are not married yet. I study Scotland and he lives in Sheffield. He is British. My permit expires in January 2017. But in my application, I only used my Child details without including any documents from the Dad, only providing his name and his role as required in the DRP form.

You appear to have submitted the wrong application.

If you have sole custody of your child and are living separately from the father, you should have applied for FLR(FP) parent route, under the UK Immigration Rules.

Expect nothing from calling any office; these applications are not sorted out over the phone.

What's your nationality?
Current immigration status (Tier 4)? - until when?
Married or unmarried?
With or without partner?

If any partner/ex-partner is British then they cannot (normally) sponsor you on EU route.

What have you actually applied for? (which form did you use)

Am Nigerian, immigration status valid till January 2017. Not married. Have a partner. I applied for the Derivatives Residence Permit. My Partner is British and we have sole custody of child. We would love together if not for my school in Scotland and he is in Sheffield. He is relocating in January because of us especially when we get the feedback from the Home Office. Thanks

You can’t get a derivative residence card if you have permission to reside in the UK for another reason.
And, aside from that point, not sure you are eligible if the child has a British parent/carer (as its not clear British child would have to leave the EEA if you left the UK).

What options are available? Aside registry which we are planning for next year? Thanks

Options to do what?
You haven't really provided enough about history, timelines, relationship status, student status.

Are you a family unit, planning to get married? (is that what is meant by 'registry')
- have you looked at spouse visa?

Work plans? Tier 2 route?

I earlier said am a student, my partner is British, my relationship is unmarried, my permit expires in January. I have a British Baby. I have not looked at any route except the Derivatives Residence. We are living apart presently bcos am schooling in Scotland and he is based in Sheffield. I don't take any benefits, he provides for your upkeep. We were thinking Derivatives Residence will be a faster route before we get married next year. Thanks

You haven't said how long you've been a student nor what you're trying to achieve (another student gig; residence; privilege of citizenship).

Derivative is not viable at moment. In any case it does not lead to PR (settled status) so its a bit of a cul de sac.
So you may have family route (marriage) or work (Tier 2) to play for.

Thanks. Am a student for just a year. Came in 2015. Permits expire in January 2017. Trying to get residence since my partner is British and I have a baby.
