What is your current nationality? Are you a citizen of any country that joined the EU in the 21st century?

Also, as the question is regarding the UK EEA Regulations, can the mods move this thread to the EEA-Route Applications sub-forum under the United Kingdom Non-Tier category?

As a French citizen, you will automatically acquire PR after five continuous years of exercising treaty rights.

Treaty rights include
a) Working (employed or self-employed)
b) Seeking work
c) Studying (requires either a non-UK EHIC card or private health insurance)
d) Self-sufficient (requires private health insurance)

When did you start working? And while you were not working, did you have either proof of seeking work or private health insurance?
