Does an EU worker need to have "permanent residence"?

Post by JohnOhn » Sun Apr 17, 2016 1:29 am

I'm a bit confused from various postings on this board.

So YES or NO: if we hire a settled worker who is an EU citizen (and thus has the right to live and work in the UK) but does not have a permanent residence card/stamp will they count as an employee for our T1E extension and ILR?

Sorry, so just to be clear: so then if I found a potential hire I love, but that hire is a Portuguese citizen living in the UK who doesn't have "permanent residence" they'll still count as a "settled worker" for T1E extension and ILR purposes?

Whoops, meant to post this in the other linked post^ will move the question there.
