PR card decision letter - 6th October (dated 3rd October), PR effective from January 2018
Other documents returned - With decision letter

Probably worth mentioning that my wife has an EEA PR (which I sent with my application) effective from January 2017 and that my EEA residence card expired (or as they put it had a renewal date) on the 9th of August. We've been living together in the UK for 7 and a half years, but were married in January 2013. We also have a daughter aged 15 months who is a UK citizen.

See you on the naturalisation thread
