You will need to be a qualified person (work yourself or study/be self-sufficient with Comprehensive Sickness Insurance aka private medical insurance for all non-British members of the family) for your husband to be able to work in the UK. Where does this exemption for *British* citizen members com...

So I am interpreting that I will be qualified to apply for permanent next year as I will complete my 5 years since I got married?

That is the correct interpretation.

I called UKVI this morning they told me that it is possible to switch to UK visa as long as we meet the other requirements and that the turnaround times were 8 weeks. One of the requirements is that your wife be in the UK lawfully or that it would be unreasonable or infeasible for your British chil...

Which category would it be as a few people say it’s counted from the day you have received your permit. Quite confusing it is! Permanent residence would be on the basis of 5 years residence as the spouse of an EU national who was a qualified person. (Please advise if your spouse is an EEA national,...

On what basis does your husband reside in the UK? If he were genuinely in work, you would probably still qualify for a residence card and would certainly have the right to accept employment.

Then after graduation applied 2 years post study visa. I have went to do masters on this visa after 8 months. After this I met EEU national Spain. Applied EEA visa on the basis of living relationship got the visa.after 6 month relationship broke and I have to move from the house. At that point you ...

Hi, this is exactly the situation I am in and I am flying with Ryanair this Friday to the UK so have been worrying a lot: I am Turkish, married to a British and we both live and work in Germany. I hold a Article 10 Residence card though it does not say the wording "Family Member of an EU Citiz...

Not sure how Lounes interacts with a situation like this. You have undoubtedly acquired PR under EU law and that should persist. However, if you have surrendered your non-UK EEA citizenship, you will no longer be able to sponsor any family member under EU law. The arguments from the Lounes case see...

Should he apply for the residence card even though it won't be valid after 2020 or just the presettled status in April. He can work with the EEA Family Permit for now. If he has found an acceptable employer who accepts the family permit, then the only advantage of a residence card would be visa fre...

I am an Irish citizen, in the UK with my South African husband and 2 children, all on EEA family visas. I understand that I have automatic settled status and there for so do my children (apparently?) My question is; seeing as I have automatic settled status, can my husband and kids apply for their ...

Do you know if after Brexit deadine, will pre settled people be able to have a Permanent Resident Card or a British Passport one day? The relevant document will be a Biometric Residence Permit recording the holding of Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR). It may note that it is a privileged holding, bu...

In case of divorce, you need to apply for Retained rights of residence but as the right to reside is only retained on the termination of the marriage , the criteria for retention will only be considered at the time of the initiation of divorce proceedings. Hence you should wait until that time to a...

It’s tricky because the months I’ve spent in the UK under the EEA FP visa dont count as it was cancelled when the RC got issued. That doesn't make sense. What makes sense is that they might not count because you had neither an FP nor an RC during May and June 2015, even though you had ultimately su...

And why is this related? I dont understand what you mean... I havent left Ecuador forever, and I have no intention of abandon the UK either. Your spouse visa was granted on the basis of The applicant and partner must intend to live together permanently in the UK. Are you saying it should not have b...

There was no break in trinity rights from me but my partner was on and off the work

It was your spouse who had treaty rights, not you. Whether you worked before the divorce is irrelevant.

Well I am not sure but HO asked me if I would like to convert my application (initially a PR application) to extend my RC. So either they would cancel existing RC and provide me with a new 5y one or somehow they would provide an extension to the current one without cancelling it. Or they would issu...

You may be able to apply as the spouse or civil partner of a British citizen instead. You need to have lived in the UK for the last 3 years and have either: indefinite leave to remain a permanent residence document (if you’re from the EEA) The thing is I am a non EEA married partner. So I am not su...

What I am worried about is if my status need to obtained again, how I can trust the system that this will not change again in the future or my status will be removed completly, as at the moment it seems that I need to make one choice of two, naturalisation or sttlement. No, your status as a holder ...

Aren't these valid through the whole transition period which is until the end of 2020 or 21? Under present plans, yes, PR will remain valid through the transition period - though the Immigration Minister (Caroline Nokes) has recently declared that there won't be a transition period if there is no B...

It started when I got granted the FP? Or the RC? It should start from when you arrived in the UK with your family permit (FP). However, it may have restarted when your RC was issued if your FP had expired. Also, do you know what would be my status if husband aquires british citizenship? Do I need t...

My husband acquired non-EEA permanent residency in January 2016 and he already received his PR card as well. I became a British citizen on the 31st of October 2018, so does it mean that my husband lost his PR status? He still has not applied for naturalisation yet. He keeps his PR status regardless...

A passport or national ID is compulsory for any travel. The OP can travel with his passport or national ID + the Residency Card when issued. He doesn't need a travel document - like a Form TD112/BRP. Why do you think a Syrian ID card can be used instead of a passport for travel to the UK from anywh...

And if I got the Uk residency, can I apply for a travel document so I can travel? Or I’m forced to stay in the uk for 5 years depends on the residency? You can travel with the Residency Card, you don't need a travel document. I believe it will be quite difficult for the OP to travel without a valid...

Although im hoping by then she can apply for settled status under the EU settlement scheme which also includes those who have arrived in the UK under SS.

From what you have said, it may be simpler for her to qualify on the basis of your being an Irish citizen!

Is there a financial requirement that we need to meet.

You two will need to be 'self-sufficient' and have comprehensive sickness insurance. Parental contributions will be allowed, but initially your earnings will be restricted to lawful earnings as a student on a Tier 4 visa.
