Hi all,

I applied for a resident card on 12 August 2008, and recieved my confirmation letter from HO after 6 weeks. Its been little over 2 months i have applied for resident card, and i know i takes 6 months to get it.

I am an Indian national and my father is Dutch national. I need to travel to USA becaues of a family emergency. US embasy requires proof of residency in UK to issue USA visa. I have been told that if i request my passport back from HO they will with draw my application and wont issue me a resident card.
Is there any way i can get my passport back with the resident permit before 6 months. I really need to travel asap.

what should i do? any suggest

thank you

 

but will they issue me resident card or not if i request my passport back

 

does home office ask for proof of employment again, after they recieve the application. i applied for residence card in august as a dependnet of eea national "my father" i sent my fathers payslips with the application. my father wants to leave his job, and i was little worried about that if home office will ask for proof of employment or payslips before they get done with my application. plz let me know if anybody has exprienced this.
thanks.
