So I can apply for a permanent residence without any paperwork to show that I am working?

Hello people, Just wondering if you'll could help me out. I am having a residence document for 5 years now and I am ready to apply for my permanent residence in march. I have just gone self employed [sole trader] What kinda documents would I need to have to show, regarding being self employed. I am ...

It doesn't really matter wether i have ILR or a 5 year stay. If i have completed 6 odd years of continuos stay here i am entitled to it anyway.

Is there any way i can get INDEFINITE stamped on my passport?

I've been reading and reading but cant seem to find out if a non eea family member could get ILR which is INDEFINITE and not 10 years.

I've seen other categories of applications that can apply for ILR, so why cant a non eea national?

Am i missing the point?

but i am not holding a non eea family permit with my spouse, its a family permit with my dad and his name is in my passport this is what is confusing me. all along it says spouse and never family member or non eea family member. and secondly i want to travel on my own and there is no mention of how ...

According to this Gremany requires a grata card, i think this is the residence card. What about Family permit on a visa? and what about family members wanting to travel to other EU countries

If i apply for portuguese i loose my indian nationality as Portugal do not allow dual nationality i think.

So m applying for british nationality next year.
