hi i would appreciate if someone could help with the options available after my stamp4eufam finished on 6th of May 2015...
i know my wife since 2007 but got married in december 2008 and i was issued stamp4eufam for 5 years, which expires next month..we are separated since october 2010 but never applied for divorce since we both didn't want to remarry.
we also have a daughter who is 5 years old and an irish citizen...my wife is from poland and i'm from pakistan. We both live and work in dublin and our daughter goes to school here as well...i would like to seek advise on what options do i have after my visa expires..I was thinking of the following..
1. Apply for "retention of rights" by filling EU5 form but the problem with that is they only accept if we were divorced or in the process of it or our marriage was annulled and not separation.
2. Applying as a parent of an Irish citizen, as my daughter is irish citizen and i'm playing an active role in her life. But i'm not sure how to go about this process or if it is appropriate in my case?
3. Apply for citizenship through Naturalization as i've been resident here now for more than 5 years.. again i'm not sure if that's applicable to me with such short time left till my visa expires?
Also if i apply for any of these options would i be issued a temporary visa while my case is in process so that i can continue work??
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
