Yes, this is correct.boulevardofbrokendreams wrote:I've been told that we can both literally show up to the point of entry and they will let us through if we have our passports and marriage certificate. This sounds too easy for me. Can anyone clarify this up for me?
The UK national must engage in economic activity in another Member State. Put simply, he needs to get a job or open a business in Ireland, for at least 6 months (according to the UK's interpretion), then return to the UK, with you, where he will be treated as an EEA national and you will be treated as the family member of an EEA national - if he continues to engage in economic activity upon his return to the UK.boulevardofbrokendreams wrote:Also, what would we both have to do to use the surinder singh route and eventually return to england?
I've been told that we both must get jobs and work for 6 months then we are able to return to england. Is this true?
Form EU1.boulevardofbrokendreams wrote:What forms must I apply for when I'm in Ireland?
If you are in Ireland for 6 months and either working, studying or job seeking then you are considered as an EEA national as a British citizen. So i would say that it is acceptable.allpeopleunite wrote:In the section regarding British citizens as EEA citizens and getting the family permit by that route, it says:
«However if a British citizen is living in another EEA country, their non-EEA family members can apply for an EEA family permit to join them on their return to the UK. This is subject to the following conditions:
* the British citizen is residing in an EEA Member State as a worker or self-employed person or was doing so before returning to the UK; and
* if the family member of the British citizen is their spouse or civil partner, they are living together in the EEA country or they entered into the marriage or civil partnership and were living together in that EEA country before returning to the UK.»
Does that mean that getting married in the UK first and then migrating to Ireland for six months is not acceptable
It is certainly acceptable. What the law is seeking to prevent, is a situation whereby the spouse of a British national seeks residency under EU law, when he/she has never moved with his/her partner to another member state, or the marriage/civil partnership was contracted after the British Partner has returned from the state he/she was exercising a treaty rights in.allpeopleunite wrote:
