the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002

REFUSAL OF EUSS FAMILY PERMIT

Post reference: 506586

To: Mihai Vladiuc

Your Application

Thank you for your application for an EU Settlement Scheme (EUSS) Family Permit.
Your application has been carefully considered, but from the information available you
do not meet the requirements for a EUSS Family Permit.

The reasons for this decision are set out on the next page.
Reasons for Refusal ROA

On 7 July 2022 you made an application for an EU Settlement Scheme (EUSS) Family
Permit under Appendix EU (Family Permit) to the Immigration Rules on the basis you
are a 'family member of a relevant EEA citizen'.

I have considered whether you meet the validity, eligibility and suitability requirements
for an EUSS Family Permit, which are set out in Appendix EU (Family Permit) to the
Immigration Rules (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration-rules/appendix-eu-family-
permit).

You can also find out more about the requirements in the guidance on GOV.UK
(https://www.gov.uk/family-permit/eu-settlement-scheme-family-permit).

You have stated that the family relationship of yourself to the EEA citizen sponsor is
child under 21. As evidence of this relationship you have provided your Romanian birth
certificate.

However, this department would expect to see your original full registered Republic of
Moldovan birth certificate, other relevant birth documentation issued at the time of the
event or other credible documentation evidencing your parentage.

I am not satisfied, based on the evidence you have provided in isolation, that you are a
'family member of a relevant EEA Citizen'.

Your application is refused.
