EEA Family Visa 3 months now
Posted: Fri Dec 18, 2020 7:48 am
Hello,
Anyone with EEA Family permit experience; how long did yours take, and did you try chasing it up for an answer or left it alone and then got a decision back?
My in-laws who are in Iraq, Erbil had their Biometrics appointment on the 14th of September 2020. It's now just over 3 months and they're still waiting. No emails, no calls, TLS Contact track my application says it's still with the decision making process.
My wife came to the UK through a Spouse visa and hers got accepted in 3 weeks. My solicitor told me these EEA Family permits take around 1-2 months, I'm not sure why it's taking so long. I am supporting them financially and have addressed that in my application, it contains payslips, birth certificates, passports, all the necessary documents.
It's getting quite depressing, I'm estranged with my immediate family and my in-laws fill all the gaps in my heart when it comes to family. I would really like to see them here in the UK and have followed the Visa requirements very carefully. But I'm just left in the dark about the timescales and whatnot.
Anyone know what's going on and what I should do?
