Re: EEA PR as 'qualified person' (worker) with jobseeking gap

Appreciated Richard. In this case I will apply in Jan 18'. In case EHIC requirement is dropped I would use self-sufficiency route otherwise I will go for Job Seeking explaining 5 months gap.
Thanks again.

Re: EEA PR as 'qualified person' (worker) with jobseeking gap

I see Richard. Is there a simple way to recognise it? Or is it lengthy legal story? Still if this is not the way: self-sufficienct (EHIC nor required) or job seeking would be the best to go.

Thanks

Re: EEA PR as 'qualified person' (worker) with jobseeking gap

Thanks Richard. In this case family member sponsoring route wouldn't be advisable way to go ahead. I looks like job seeking justification for 5 months has got the biggest chance unless Toufik Lounes case will be positive or HO will drop requirement for EHIC coverage in the past (self sufficient rout...

Re: EEA PR as 'qualified person' (worker) with jobseeking gap

Hi Richard, Thanks for that. I am still a bit confused by the note: To note: It remains the position that the transitional arrangements do not apply in circumstances where a dual EEA/British citizen marries their family member after the transitional arrangements have ended. These cases will continue...

Re: EEA PR as 'qualified person' (worker) with jobseeking gap

Hi Richard, Thanks for your reply. I am a bit lost about 2012 'cut off' and its consequences. My husband got permanent residence in March 2015 and BC in Nov 2016 (from 2011 he just hold registration certificate, one year from his arrival to the UK in March 2010). In your understanding can I use him ...

Re: EEA PR as 'qualified person' (worker) with jobseeking gap

Hi Richard, Thanks for your comments. My understanding is that he can't be my sponsor now as he can't exercise his treaty rights anymore while being BC. The only hope for this path would be positive conclusion in Toufik Lounes case. Still it would be good to understand some real cases of documented ...

Re: EEA PR as 'qualified person' (worker) with jobseeking gap

Hi Tmonaghan, Thanks again for your insights. The main purpose is to obtain BC and the passport, hence Settled Status is not what I am after.. No CSI in 2015. Do you know when HO plans to drop the requirement for CSI? I would like to understand if someone tried and managed to submit PR application w...

Re: EEA PR as 'qualified person' (worker) with jobseeking ga

Hi Tmonaghan, just forgotten to mention while having PR I can apply for BC now (I am married to BC who is dual EU/BC citizen from Nov 16'). Also a bit frustrating bit as I can't use my spouse as sponsor due to the fact of him being BC now (not even for the period of my 5 months where he was indeed m...

Re: EEA PR as 'qualified person' (worker) with jobseeking ga

Many thanks Tmonaghan for your thoughts. If I am reading it right + content of ruling from Shabani case I tend to believe 6 months of documented job seeking (CVs, application letter, interviews) can be good enough to prove it. What do you think? I am pasting full note of EOPT: From: European Operati...

Re: EEA PR as 'qualified person' (worker) with jobseeking ga

Thanks for your comment. Seeking employment doesn't mean you must be registered with Jobcentre Plus - please see below. Am I interpreting that right? Thanks Seeking employment Evidence of seeking employment may include: • job application forms • letters of invitation to interviews • rejection letter...

Re: EEA PR as 'qualified person' (worker) with jobseeking ga

Many thanks for sharing your experience Breev. Well done! My current concern is related to the fact of gap being 5 months and also to the fact I was jobseeking 3 months at the arrival. Now I am considering to apply for PR in January 2018, so the initial period shouldn't be taken into account for 5 y...

EEA PR as 'qualified person' (worker) with jobseeking gap

I’m an EEA national applying for a permanent residence (PR) as ‘qualified person’ in September 2017. I would have a continuous 5 year employment (3 different employers) with a 5 month gap in 2015 (Jan-May). Also, on my arrival to the UK I registered as a jobseeker with Jobcentre Plus for 3 months fr...
