Biometric information for non-EEA nationals: form
EEA(PR)
Note: this section applies to non-EEA nationals applying for a permanent residence card only.
Do not complete this section if you are an EEA national applying for a document certifying permanent residence – proceed straight to section 1 instead.
If you are a non-EEA national applying for a permanent residence card, you must complete this section in full. If you do not, we may reject your application and return it to you without consideration. Introduction
In accordance with the Immigration (Provision of Physical Data) Regulations 2006 (as amended), any non-EEA national applying for a permanent residence card as evidence of their right to reside under the Immigration (European Economic Area) Regulations 2006 (as amended) (‘the
EEA Regulations’) must give their biometric information (fingerprints and a digital photograph) before their application will be considered. You must complete this section fully to ensure that we have the correct information when you attend your biometric appointment.
When we receive your application, we will send you a biometric enrolment letter. This will instruct you to make an appointment at a designated Post Office to have your biometric information recorded. You will be charged an additional handling fee for this service, payable to the Post Office Ltd. You must pay the fee by cash or debit card when you attend your biometric enrolment appointment.

Do not send the biometric enrolment fee with your application fee.
Your application may be rejected as invalid if you do not enrol your biometric information when requested. For more information about biometrics, please visit www.gov.uk/ biometric-residence-permits Definitions
In this section, the term ‘residence card (biometric format)’ means a residence card, permanent residence card or derivative residence card issued under the EEA Regulations after you have given your biometric information. This is issued as a separate biometric card and not as a vignette or sticker in your passport, travel document, or other document.
If you currently have, or last had:
• a residence card (biometric format) confirming your right to reside under the EEA Regulations, or • a biometric residence permit confirming that you had been granted leave to remain under the
Immigration Rules or Immigration Act 1971, you must include this document with your application (unless you have already returned the document to us).

If you’re applying as the unmarried (durable) partner of an EEA national, you must show that you have been living together in a relationship similar to a marriage or civil partnership since you were last issued with a registration certificate or residence card in this category.

Examples of acceptable items are listed below. They should be addressed to you jointly or in both your names. The documents provided must be originals. Photocopies are not acceptable.
You can rely on all or some of the same documents submitted in support of section 5, provided they clearly show you and your partner have been living together. We will consider each case on its individual merits but we recommend that you send at least 2 or 3 items addressed to you and your partner jointly for each year you have been living together (or since you were last issued with a registration certificate or residence card, if applicable). If you have changed address during this period, the evidence should cover each address you have lived at. The evidence should come from a variety of sources.
For example, to cover a 5-year period living at the same address, you should send a minimum of 10-15 items, from 4 or 5 different sources, addressed to you jointly, spread evenly throughout the 5 years.
If you do not have enough items in your joint names, you may also provide items addressed to each of you individually if they show the same address for both of you.
For example – you could send 10 items of correspondence in joint names at the same address, plus 5 items addressed to you, and a further 5 items addressed to your partner, provided they show that you were living together at the same address (20 items in total).
If you and your partner lived with relatives or friends for some or all of the relevant period, please provide a letter from the relative(s) and/or friend(s) confirming this.
If you did not live together for any part of the relevant period, tell us the reasons for this and whether you stayed in contact with each other during this time, and provide any relevant supporting evidence.
Please give an explanation on a separate sheet if you cannot provide the minimum number of items; the items are not addressed to both of you; or they do not cover the relevant period.
