I am a British Citizen and my husband is a Non-EEA national (Pakistani). I have been married in Pakistan since Jan 2014 and and from April 2014-September 2014 have been living together in Pakistan. I am now back in the UK.
I've been researching and thinking of the best way of being together in the UK.
I have thought of a way but unsure of the steps, so feel free to clarify and add bits
- I am planning to exercise my treaty right in Poland by working and apply for a residency card.
- After that, I would call my husband over on a tourist schengen visa whilst the marriage certificate is being authorised etc (then apply for a temporary residency card for him if necessary)
- After we have been living together for 3 months (or maybe less) and gained the necessary documents (tenancy agreement, payslips etc, marriage certificate with being valid in Poland)
- I would apply for a EEA Family Permit in order to come back to the UK with my husband
My questions are:
1) Can he apply for EEA FP eventhough he is on a tourist visa or is the spouse visa in Poland necessary, if so is he able to switch from visit to spouse with the required documents?
2) Does the documents to apply for the FP have to be on only my name or both our names? such as the tenancy agreement and the bills, bank account.
3) Does he have to come live with me in Poland in order to apply for EEA FP?
Any help appreciated.
Thank you
