Re: Complicated Question - Proofing my permanent residency

The concept of automatically acquiring PR was only introduced into UK law via the 2006 EEA Regulations. So you can't have acquired it before your daughter's birth in 2004 (because it did not exist at the time). Between 30th October 2000 and 2006, EEA citizens were not eligible for most forms of per...

Re: Complicated Question - Proofing my permanent residency

BTW: My still husband is a Spanish citizen who also hasn't applied for the Indefinite Leave to Remain in the UK. In fact, he never applied for the Settled or Pre-settled status as well since he left for Spain.

Re: When can I apply for citizenship?

My understanding is that if you are married to a british citizen you don't have to wait those 12 months. You should be able to apply as soon as you get your ILR but I may be wrong. Perhaps it would be wise to wait for other feedback.
