    Hi!
    To keep it short, I'm a Pakistani wife married to an irish national who currently is in uk.

    I want to apply for my visa from Pakistan
    But am confused.

    1. Should I apply for EEA family permit or settlement of wife of an eea national?

    2. I travel to and back to UAE and hold a residence visa, last I came back was in September 2015 and my 6 months will complete in march 2016, would I still need a TB certificate?

    3. My husband says I don't need an English language test as a spouse of eea national. But just in case I want to know if I need one. I've done bachelors in arts in English advance but my final year result is not out yet. Thus I have no prove that I did that yet.

    4. Do I need to answer every unnecessary question in the VAF5 form i.e EEA family permit as a spouse of eea national?


    I'll update my queries if I have any.
    I want to apply my visa asap.
    Waiting for replies and thank you in advance.
    Mona ali.

    Sounds like you need to post this on a UK forum, not an Irish one. Good luck.

    Just to add onto this, if it is the UK you are hoping to live in, then as the spouse of an EU national living in the UK, you should apply for the EEA family permit.

    Don't know much about the process in the UK so you would be best served asking a UK forum.

    Thank you for your help. I've been getting the same answer but still I want to confirm from someone in my situation.

    Hi Monali - post here mumsnet.com/Talk/legal_matters

    Quite a lot of lawyers there and obviously lots of immigrants in similar situations. Unlike here, they do tend to offer legal opinion.
