Hello,

i applied for the eea2 card one month ago, but it was returned two weeks ago because i had to send more supporting documents (insurance document). I took out a policy shortly after i got that letter, but the insurance company (axa) is taking ages to send the policy documents to me and my eea family permit expired 7 days ago.

Will they refuse my eea2 application because my eea fp expired recently? Will they refuse my application because i hadn't taken out the policy earlier?

I think the answer to the second question is "no", because i found out i needed insurance cover the day after applying and i called the ho to ask whether i had to take out a policy asap and they said "don't do anything until you receive a letter from us"... But i'd love to know whether, in practice, it does affect the application?

Thanks in advance.
