EEA Family permit for Indian national

[tanya_gemini]

Sorry some more questions.

Is it alright if I get passport copy endrosed in latvia and send scanned copy of it to india by email and my husband will print it for application or I should send endorsed passport copy by post?

And when we apply for EEA family permit do we need to show evidence that only I (EEA national) am a jobseeker or applicant should show evidence that he is a jobseeker too? Thank you.

No. You need to post the original endorsed (certified) copy, as they need to see an original signature by officials.

And when we apply for EEA family permit do we need to show evidence that only I (EEA national) am a jobseeker or applicant should show evidence that he is a jobseeker too?

Just you as EEA citizen, because your husband's status is wholly dependent on you as EEA jobseeker.

And what do you think about the ways of filing documents? Can we file some documents like evidence of durable relationships on recorded CD or DVD? For example we have a lot of photos which we could show. I think it would be more convenient to record such files on CD rather than print them all. Would it be acceptable? The same thing is about emails and electronic messages. Thanks a lot.

P.S. And we have also some videos recorded together. Is it useful to show them as well?

No, only send items in printed form. What you need to do is to choose representative samples of photos and print them out, say 2-3 per trip, per birthday, and so on, not dozens.

[tanya_gemini]

Thank you! We will do that.

If we prepare some letters from other people as evidence for our durable relationships or for any other evidence - do they need to be certified by notary? Sorry if it is not appropriate question. We are already starting making list of documents to prepare for application. Thank you for help.

No, but such letters carry limited weight (as you would only ask those who will give you a nice write-up). Maybe from both sets of parents? Keep it brief - no longer than one side of A4, and possibly shorter.

Thank you. We will probably do one letter from parents of my future husband and a letter from my brother who was with us in UK when we lived there.

Hi again!

Me (EEA national) and my partner (Indian citizen) are married already and started preparation of EEA Family Permit application. Can you please help us with some questions in the application form?

How long do you intend to stay in the UK? On which date will you leave the UK? - we wish to settle down there what shall we write?

5.10. What is your total monthly income from all the sources of employment or occupation after tax?

8.2.6 How often do you meet? - As I told before we lived together in UK for one year and now I live in Latvia and he lives in India. We married in India recently and I am staying here for a while but I am leaving in 2 days back to Latvia. What shall we answer to this question?

8.9.1 Where do you and EEA national plan to live in the UK? - we plan to write my brother's address (who is staying in the UK right now). He rents single room in a shared house. Will it be alright?

8.10.15 How much does EEA national spend each month on living costs? - I am living with my parents now and do not spend much shall I still write expenses on house?

8.10.16 Do you intend to work in the UK? - If YES they ask details - which details do they need? We plan to work in UK but we plan to find a job after we arrive there.


Please help us. Thank you very much in advance.
