How do you know there is no policy to back up the statement?Universal soldier wrote:This question is really very interesting but no one has exact answer even any guideline except saying that both visas can run same time. But I think if you can be able to do job with tier2 employer for remaining 2 years then its better for getting ILR. But if you are married with EU national already then why not you just not apply eea2 because its optional because many times caseworker donot return BRP or cancel the old visa, it can make complications.
Where a person who has a right of residence under EU law makes a valid application for leave to remain under the Immigration Rules (which includes paying any applicable fee attached to such an application), that application will be considered on its individual merits in line with the relevant section of the Immigration Rules.
It is possible for a person to have a right of residence under EU law and to also have a valid grant of leave under the Immigration Rules at the same time.
If a person with an outstanding application for leave under the Immigration Rules decides that they wish to rely solely on their right of residence under EU law it is open for them to withdraw their application under the Rules. However, any fee paid for that application would be forfeited should the application be withdrawn
In law, yes. In practice, no. If you weren't who you said you were, your employer could be fined £20,000 if he hadn't seen your residence card.vicky400 wrote:I'm married to a EEA national and on a Tier2 visa. Does that mean, even if I don't have a EEA2 residence card:
1) I can switch job anytime without needing a sponsor so long I remain married?
If you have your own boat and your husband with you, yes. In practice, no, you would need an EEA family permit to return, though I think you might be able to do it where British immigration is working in France.vicky400 wrote:2) I can still travel in and out the UK without either a Tier2 visa or a EEA residence card?
If your husband remains a 'qualified person', e.g remains a worker for the full 5 years, you automatically get permanent residence, so irrelevant.vicky400 wrote:3) I will be eligible to apply for the indefinite leave to remain five years since we got married?
