I don't really understand the question.joshuaaubin wrote:Sorry i don't think it has anything to do with the country where the Nationality comes from, I am asking as a Dual National, (An EU National and NON-EU National) will it matter the passport i should use for a permanent residence application as a (family member of an EEA). Which of the two Passport would be best to use to apply for a Permanent Residence. Should i Continue to a permanent resident with the NON-EU Passport or can i apply Straight away for it with My EU Passport as i a applying as a (family member of an EU). Thanks.
I am the spouse of an EEA National who is exercising EU treaty rights in the UK, what you are saying is doesn't matter what nationality i am as they are only concern about the sponsor nationality? not mine. that means i can be any nationality i wish to be to apply for the permanent residence card?noajthan wrote:I don't really understand the question.joshuaaubin wrote:Sorry i don't think it has anything to do with the country where the Nationality comes from, I am asking as a Dual National, (An EU National and NON-EU National) will it matter the passport i should use for a permanent residence application as a (family member of an EEA).

If you're a dependent you are a dependent whether from EU or non-EEA.
If you mean which is your 'primary' nationality of the two then only you know that.

Thanks for the help, i was thinking they would say i have not lived in the UK for 5 years as an EU National myself, that got me confused. lolnoajthan wrote:Yes, that is it.joshuaaubin wrote:I am the spouse of an EEA National who is exercising EU treaty rights in the UK, what you are saying is doesn't matter what nationality i am as they are only concern about the sponsor nationality? not mine. that means i can be any nationality i wish to be to apply for the permanent residence card?
All you have to prove is you're the direct family member of your spouse who IS an EEA national (and your sponsor);
do this with marriage certificate & with both your ids (eg passports).
That shouldn't be an issue as you will have to prove your residency in UK anyway.joshuaaubin wrote:Thanks for the help, i was thinking they would say i have not lived in the UK for 5 years as an EU National myself, that got me confused. lol
