Apologies for the basic questions
![Embarassed :oops:](./images/smilies/icon_redface.gif)
My wife is a German national. She’s been living in the U.K. since December 2009, in which time she has been self-employed (and so has HMRC tax returns) and also spent 12 months studying for and achieving an MSc at a London university.
I am a British citizen by birth. We got married in 2012 in London and have a child together, born in the U.K.
In the wake of the EU referendum vote, she’s decided to apply for British citizenship. She’s taken and passed the ‘Life in the U.K.’ test recently.
We started to complete form EEA(PR) as a first step. Now I’m confused as to whether this is the correct form for her*. Is it? Am I her sponsor?
When we send originals of everything I assume (and hope) the HO takes copies and returns things promptly? We can’t be without our passports for any length of time!
Thanks
J
*As an aside, I see that the forms aren’t actually a mandatory requirement and as long as all the detail, documentary evidence and the fee page is sent, a covering letter will suffice for EU citizens exercising their treaty rights…
