Hi All,
I thought someon on this forum may be able to help me with our little naturalisation enigma.
I moved to the UK in 2004, as a Polish citizen, have been self-employed continously since then.
In 2008 I got married to a non-EU/EEA citizen (in Poland).
In January 2009, she came over to the UK to live with me.
She got a 6-month EEA entry clearance back then (in Poland), and then another one in July 2009 (also in Poland).
In December 2009, she got a 5-year EEA "Residence Documentation" card valid for five years.
In Dec 2010, I became a UK citizen.
In January 2014, we applied for my wife's Permanent Residence document (using EEA4 form). She now
has a PR document (since mid-March).
Someone once told me that my wife may be able to apply for citizenship on the basis of being
married to a UK citizen for over three years (I got my UK citizenship in Dec 2010, so it's 3 years and 3 months now).
Is this correct? I mean can she now claim to be a wife of a UK citizen, even though she first came
here as an EEA family member (and got a PR document on this basis)?
Any advice would be welcome!
