Schengen: Visa Fee (EU Spouse)
This is specifically about the Schengen visa fee for EU spouses.
Our visa, it seems, has already "gone through", if you will. (We were told we don't need to interview and to mail-in the passport and visa fee).
On the, already approved, application I am marked as the EU relative (read: spouse).
I, though, have two nationalities, one being of EU-origin and the other American.
My American nationality is the only one mentioned on our marriage certificate.
Now, though, we are being told that the fee will not be refunded (as we were originally told) since the marriage certificate only mentions my American nationality.
What doesn't make sense to me though is that the application and all the documents have already been approved, if there was any sort of doubt as to our relationship or my nationality wouldn't we have not been approved?
Do we really need to pay the visa fee?
