Hi,
My husband and I will be moving to the UK soon. I am EEA (Austria), he is non-eea. He will be working while I will be home on maternity leave.
I am new to all of this.. Understand we need to apply for my husband's 5 years residence card during the first 6 months. A few questions:
1. I will be receiving maternity benefits from Irish Welfare (have been working in Ireland for the past 2 years). Does this qualify for 'practicing EU treaty rights'? Should I say I am still (officially) employed by by Irish employer and present previous payslips, or should I say I'm self-sufficient? Should I mention the maternity leave at all? Should I say I'm seeking for a job? What's best?
2. My husband family permit is valid for 6 months but I understand processing might take longer. Will he be able to go out and back in once that permit is expired? Is there another type of permit that needs to be acquired while waiting for the HO resolution?
Thanks!
