Post by Chouchou » Wed Oct 17, 2007 11:05 am

Hi All,

Many thanks all for your replys.

Kindly regards
Chouchou :wink:

.

Your post implies strongly that you do not currently hold citizenship with an EU Member State.

Until you do, immigration rules for non-EU/non-EEA national apply.


The exception to that would be if you are employed in the UK by a UK firm and they needed you to do some tasks for that firm in another EU State. Some paperwork needs be in order, but that is possible.

But you seem to have an offer for a new job with a new employer, therefore not qualifying for such an exception.

Why did you not apply for naturalisation sooner, before the test and fees hike?

In any case, until you have the certificate of naturalisation, you are not an EU/EEA citizen and therefore need a visa to work in another EU/EEA member state.

The passport isn't really the proof (alone) of your nationality, as many people are without; it is the certificate you need, really.

I think there is a danger that if you leave the UK to work in another country that it will effect your application for UK citizenship.

You should check this out - but if you are applying for citizenship based on residence in the UK, you surely have to be resident in the UK!
