Hello guys,
Can I enter UK with EEA Family permit if my wife is outside the UK for business purpose for that period?
Obviously she will be back after couple of months.
Can I be denied entry at Heathrow for my wife not being present in the UK while I try to enter?
Please inform and links too if you have.

it is fine, you can enter with a valid EEA Family Permit on your own.

I did enter UK via Heathrow while my EEA partner was in Brazil 3 years ago and a year back in Spain.
So twice I enter UK on EEA family card, however I had been asked question like, where is my EEA partner, I said holidaying in Amazon - Brazil and will be back in the UK after a week.
Second time they asked same question, I said holidaying in Spain, I was with my partner but due to work commitments I have to come back earlier and my partner will be back after a week.
Hope this will help.
I was though carrying evidence to prove our relationship and partner working in the UK under EU regulations, such as our marriage/civil partnerships certificate, partner’s payslips, partner’s return ticket, however they never asked to produce. They just checked EEA family card and my passport.

Hi there, I hv my eea family permit which has " to join ××××". I am travelling by myself to the UK. Unfortunately my spouse won't be at the port as she will be outside the UK for meeting clients and will arrive in the UK after me.
Does "to join xxxx" means eea national has to be physically in the UK at the time of entry?
Will this be a problem for me to enter the UK?
Anyone have such experience?
Thanks

People seem get confused between eea family permit and residence card.

Hi I didn't want to break the rules of the EEA PR Timeline, but I have a slightly off topic question.
Your PR application timeline is extremely close to mine and I have been watching yours closely.
The online tracker is no longer reliable, so I thought I'd ask if you have received your your PR card
