Bio letter received and done = 17/7/17

Online status decided = 13/9/17

Hi All,

I thought I will post my timeline as well as provide an index of the evidence I provided with my application. I’ve not seen a lot of people posting this type of info and it would have been helpful for me to have had an example of evidence submitted for the application, I hope this would help a few others as well.

Based on non-EU unmarried partner to EU citizen.

Application with Supporting documentation sent (postal): 07/08/2017
Payment taken: 08/08/2017
- Chased up after two weeks, because the money was taken but no email confirmation that the application was received was send to me.
- 17/08/2017: Email received advising that application was received but nothing has been done with it as yet.
Confirmation email: 06/09/2017
- Date on website shows 05/09/2017: Awaiting Decision
Biometric letter received: 08/09/2017
Biometric details submitted: 09/09/2017
COA received: 21/09/2017 (Dated 18/09/2017)
- Call received from Home office - partner passport to be handed in: 26/10/2017
- Partner Passport received back: 01/11/2017
Documents received: 06/11/2017
PR cards received: 06/11/2017

Online Status: Still shows “Awaiting Decision”

All in all, it took 14 weeks from submittal date.

Would have been quicker but my partner required his passport to travel for business.

We submitted a certified true copy of my partner passport (received from our bank) with a letter from his company advising that he requires his passport to travel for work.

HO required to see the original document, there is also a service where the Local Council can verify your passports and then you don’t require to submit the original passport with the application. Unfortunately, there was a 6-week waiting period for this service

( https://www.gov.uk/government/collectio ... rn-service )

This is the index of the evidence to support application:

- My Passport
- Certified true copy of my partner passport with letter from his company, later replaced with his original passport.

Additional Information
• Letter confirming non-EU unmarried partner EEU
• Employment Letter (for both myself and my partner)
• Driving License (Paper) (for both myself and my partner)
• Evidence of National Insurance Number (for both myself and my partner)

Year 1 (2017)
• P60 (for both myself and my partner)
• Joint Bank account statement 1month’s
• Council Tax Statement
• Tenancy Agreement

Year 2 (2016)
• P60 (for both myself and my partner)

Year 3 (2015)

• Joint Bank account statement 1month’s
• Council Tax Statement

Year 4 (2014)

• Council Tax Statement

Year 5 (2013)

Year 6 (2012)

• Tenancy Agreement and Tenancy Deposit Certificate

Year 7 (2011)
• P60 (for both myself and my partner)
• Bank account statement 1month’s (for both myself and my partner)

I’ve submitted 7 years even though only 5 years of evidence was required.

Good luck with everyone’s applications!!!
