Hi there

I have for the past two years had an EEA2 - unmarried partner visa in my passport. It is due to expire and in my letter from HO it states and I have apply for further leave to remain. Just wondering which form I use as my partner is dutch and I'm australian, and we are due to get married 2 months before it expires. Do I still apply under the European ruling, or considering I have had a previous visa and will now be a spouse do I apply for ILR. And if we do apply under EEA law, which form do we use?

Also, my partner's work moved us to Holland for the past 6 months (together) however we are moving back to the UK in 5 weeks, will this effect our application?

I"m very confused.

 

Also, we are getting married in Australia, do we still need a certificate of approval??

 

Thanks for your response.

Okay so if I apply for the EEA2 again, I shouldn't have to pay a fee, I didn't the first time. However will I need to provide supporting documents ie 20 each over the period of time as well as our marriage certificate?

So many questions....

 

Wonderful! Many thanks for all your help!! I noticed that on the new form it say residence card as opposed to a sticker, do we now get cards?

 

Great thanks for clearing that up.

I do have another query tho, if I was to apply for a new passport in my married name, would i have any difficulty processing my application? I assume I would just present both passports with the application, is this correct? Might just be easier for in the future.
