There are probably Facebook groups covering the SS route in those countries, or try the expat Facebook groups or the BE forums for those countries.

And an EEA Family Permit helps prove your...

Re: My experience of going the Surinder Singh route so far

But here's the kicker. This thread is about Brits using a legal EU ruling to bring their non-EU spouses and family members to the UK because in 2012 the UK government decided Brits should have to...

Re: My experience of going the Surinder Singh route so far

Tourist season's coming up. Lots of hotels, bars and resorts will be hiring English-speaking staff, often through agencies.

Re: My experience of going the Surinder Singh route so far

Re: My experience of going the Surinder Singh route so far

He's unlikely to get his Maltese Residence Card then.

He also won't be applying for a UK Family Permit without a Maltese RC either. Are you staying in Malta, going to Morocco, or returning to the...

Re: My experience of going the Surinder Singh route so far

What does he hate about Malta?

Is it a temporary return to Morocco?

Has he got his Maltese Residence Card yet?

It appears the OP is looking to return to the UK via a Spouse visa, and may benefit from a different thread.

Re: My experience of going the Surinder Singh route so far

NO! Visit visa is not fine. Malta doesn't issue a residence card to anyone on a tourist visa.

Re: My experience of going the Surinder Singh route so far

If you go to Malta before your wife, you'll need a different visa and a work permit as a non-EU national.

To live and work in another EU member state as the family member of an EU national...

Re: My experience of going the Surinder Singh route so far

If you're planning to go straight to the UK as soon as you have the host-country RC, you're going to have issues later on. I suggest staying at least 6-12 months in the host country. There are a...

You'd be better off applying for the Irish RC as soon as you meet the requirements, and stay there as long as you can. Definitely don't even consider leaving Ireland for the UK before you have the...

Re: My experience of going the Surinder Singh route so far

Rep. of Ireland is a 'C' visa application, for most other EU countries it's a Schengen visa application.

Re: My experience of going the Surinder Singh route so far

The more evidence you provide, the more likely a successful first-time application.

It's usually 3-5 weeks for an FP, but some take longer.
