More info on British/Irish dual citizenship for EEA family permit

[Terpe]

hi guys, today i contacted UKBA not once but twice, i told them my situation, they said even though i havent lived there i have irish citizenship its should be ok, using my irish passport.. but they said to contact the embassy in manila as it is them that makes the decisions and issues the EEA family permit, to find out for sure all the qualifying requirements, so maria will call later.. fingers crossed.

Tread very carefully Robert.

As you now know, technically/legally and following the court ruling in the case of McCarthy v Secretary of State for the Home Department (Case C-434/09) any status you MAY be granted is solely a policy/discretional decision by the Home Office.

If it were me I would not go shaking that particular can of worms.

No offence Robert just trying to help.
