Entering UK with article 10 RC after FP refusal.

[kopite]

So as the title says, we are contemplating entering the UK with my wife's article 10 residence card. I know this is legal, however we have our concerns as she has been given a family permit refusal.
 
I have been told on facebook she could be flagged and sent back? Has anyone any experience of this?

If you don,t mind what was the reason for the FP refusal,  they are usually a straight forward application, a refusal would be entered into the system so immigration at a port/airport will be able to see the refusal.

We didn't change the residence card address to our current address, some other things which in fact were incorrect. They said I didn't submit wage slips but I did, translated as well.

No experience but if the FB 'advice' mentioned doesn't include any specifics and based on the tome of supporting evidence listed in the above links being available and presented along with the A10RC, I don't think there will be any problems. AFAIK, there's no linkage between a EEAFP refusal and a valid A10RC. It was only a refused application for an EEAFP and not a cancelled or revoked EEAFP.

Looking at the requirements on the  gov.uk site as long as you have the evidence you should be ok, not sure about boarding a flight from Thailand, they like to see entry permit/visa in passport, i would ask this question on the second link i posted, there are are lot of people with up to date info,

Yeah will do. We will preferably be entering via ferry/eurotunnel, France/Spain.

Thanks. Lots of scaremongering on FB. Thanks for the positive reply.
