Confirmation email by HO for my husband and daughter only 01/08/2017
Phoned Euro contact on 16/08/2017 to request my confirmation email ut was told i have to wait for the Biometrics letter that could take up to 8 weeks . Called again on the 21/08/2017 ,and send an emailed them on 22/08/2017 was told i should get it soon .
Confirmation of application email for me : 22/08/2017 sent to my husband's email
Biometrics letter received on 25/08/2017 dated 19/08/2017 done it on the 26/08/2017.
During this time my work have been asking me about my status and said i would be out of a job if i do not have a letter to prove i can work while my application is being decided.
I phoned them on the 04/09/2017 and again on the 06/09/2017 as my employer check on the website they provided said i was not able to work,I mentioned to them that this was incorrect as i get the same rights as my EEA family member while my application is being decided,i was put on hold and given an email address to email someone,I did and had an automated response that said someone will get back to me within the next 21days .
Today home office emailed my employer saying i can work while my application is being decided and I have no restrictions .I know this is God as i have been praying the whole time ,my employer gave me a copy of the email they got from the home office ,i have yet to receive a letter from them directly.
My last EEA residence took 3weeks as i applied outside the uk , now i wait while my application is being decided , lucky for me i have my passport and being a Trinidadian i can still travel to European countries without a visa .
Hope this help someone ,now the waiting begin .Strangely enough I'm not worried .
My application says decided but I was told when I called that it hasn't been decided and the update was an error.iz1 wrote: ↑Mon Sep 04, 2017 3:02 amUpdateiz1 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 12, 2017 7:17 pmUpdateiz1 wrote:iz1 wrote:I had my Previous application rejected due to supposed missing passport pictures that were missing in March 17.

I commiserate with your problem.Jocv wrote: ↑Tue Sep 12, 2017 11:23 amHi guys
I wonder if you can help me again?
I applied for residence card as eea national. Home office sent me the documents, the concierge of my building signed for them but I never received them. I understand my documents are gone but how can I request a second residence card? Has this happened to anyone? Will this interfere with getting a bristish passport in the future? I have been crying non stop.

I have applied for a PR residence at the end of June as a EU citizen, but still waiting for the decision. My wife will need to apply this month for he PR as a non-EU citizen. Does she need to send all my documents again with her application or can she send a letter giving the details of my application instead so they can check for her application as well??? Very confusing, anyone had this issue before? We do not know what to do.
Thanks everyone
Did your solicitor show you any evidence that he informed HO about the change in his address? DEFINITELY NOT. He is only passing the blame on to HO. Your solicitor has been abroad since May if I remember rightly and you are waiting for his return and in the mean time I do hope you are trying to get duplicate copies of those documents that you can get a duplicate copy of. The solicitor will do NOTHING so dont waste time waiting for him. Act on your own and immediately.Pizzahut wrote: ↑Tue Sep 12, 2017 1:50 pmSame thing happened with me JOCV..i applied Efm application june 2016.recieve COA with right to work on 13 september 2016 after that nrver heard anything from home office..From march 2017 i was trying to chase home office but never get any response from them.In May i checked online and it was saying decided on 18th of January 2017..on 3rd of August receive a cal from home office she gave me a royal mail tracking number .i checked on Royal mail website and it was showing my post was delivered to my solicitor's previous address on 20th of January 2017.he changed his office address in December 2016 and wrote a letter to HO about This. but i think home office didn't update in their system and they sent to my solicitor's previous address. Now my solicitor is abroad for some reasons. i call home office,sent a email and a letter as well in 2nd week of August to ask a copy of my decision letter but still waiting for any response. i checked with his previous address and neighbours but nothing positive. It's very frustrating situation. don't know what to do. .I don't know what is my legal status now. .
Hello Badis, thank you for replying me. Oh yes fingers cross it all goes well.Badis wrote: ↑Wed Sep 13, 2017 8:50 amHello CHARLES T
we are in the same route dear.
I am non EEA family married to an (Irish,british) citizen after 5years of marriage.
I did apply for PR. My timeline as fellow:
Application sent on: 23/08/2017
Application recieved: 24/08/2017
Payment taken on:25/08/2017
I wish everything's goes well for both of us. I think at the moment HO are so busy also don't need to get stress as they can process our application without update us by letters or email, know as well that our application can take up to 6months and half we keep hopefully dear any update I will post it ASAP
You will require your P45s/P60s when you apply for nationality. These you probably wont get from your employer. You need original documents proving you were employed so that may be a difficulty. Also you need to provide evidence that you were resident in the UK for the last 5 years. Bank statements kind of documents are not accepted. You need letters from government departments which you probably sent out with ur PR application. Try garnering as many duplicates as you possibly can.Jocv wrote: ↑Tue Sep 12, 2017 11:23 amHi guys

-not provide original documentation for all of the following: sufficient evidence of your sponsor exercising rights.
They have all our documents in original... the only things they don't have is my blood test...
I assume your sponsor's application has not been decided. You have sent another application. The new application cannot have original documents as they are submitted with husband's application. They do not refer to another application as they have been submitted separately.
Hi charles please read my above post ,hope this helps I'm also from Trinidad. My employer nearly did the same to me .CharlesT wrote: ↑Wed Sep 13, 2017 4:33 amHello my lovely people
Could someone kindly let me know when and how the HO send the acknowledgement letter when they have received an eea pr application posted to them through next day special delivery. I sent mine on the 23rd of August 17, I am yet to receive any letter acknowledging receipt from the ho. I have now been suspended without pay.
You have come back with another ID now. One was sharmk I remember. Same old story, your BRP has your fathers name as middle name and passport doesnt.
Your explanation is very confusing. You first say " I'm not independent with my sponsor and we don't live together". How would you be independent and live with your brother?Abdihakim wrote: ↑Thu Sep 14, 2017 7:50 amAbdihakim wrote: ↑Tue Aug 01, 2017 12:27 pm

Bad news for me
I received a refusal later today and the reason is my response is my brother and he's EEA and I'm none EEA nationality the reason they refuse is last 5 years I'm not independent with my sponsor and we don't live together that's the only reason they refusing my application AI don't know what to do now I was working last 5 years and student and me and my sponsor we can't live together as my sponsor is married and got 6 childrens and he's house is 3 bedrooms it's to small for them but I also included my application my sponsor ID and his last 5 years proof work bills everything.
Please is there anyone who can give me best advice what to do now. I really need help the Home office they only give me 14 days to appeal to the decision or make new application. Please give me your best advice.
