He is self employed. That means that nobody will ask him for his proof that he is allowed to work in the UK. Correct? So I do not see why he "will not be able to work" even after his current RC expires... Please correct me if I am wrong. Be clear: Legally the UK does not require that he have either a RC or PR card.Polindia wrote:he has a Family Member Residence Stamp which is expiring. Im assuming he won't be able to work if he doesn't renew it or does not get PR?
I think you may have PR already. (It is not something you need to apply for, but you can apply for a card that confirms the PR if you want).Polindia wrote:I don't have PR myself - if it matters.
I think the only issue UKBA may have is whether you had CSI (Comprehensive Sickness Insurance) in the period you were a student and not working.Polindia wrote:Sep 2005 - arrived to UK

Sep 2009 - Sep 2011 - full time student plus casual/part time work in a meantime (between October 2009 and March 2010, June and July 2010)

Yes, it was always paid work. For first three years full time then mainly part time.
As long as you exercised treaty rights for some period of 5 years and generally met the qualifications, then you automatically got PR on day (5 years plus one day). You will loose that PR only if you leave the UK for more than 2 years.Polindia wrote: Few questions are:
- Am I right in thinking it's not enough to prove excersing treaty rights or is it enough I prove exercising them between Feb 2006 and Feb 2011 which is 5 years? Do I just omit current period then?
- If I cannot omit current situation what would be best solution - register as a job seeker or get into self employment or be employed by my husband?
- I haven't had a comprehensive sick insurance as a student, what can I do about it? Is it enough that I worked for some period of time as a student plus purchasing one now?
- Is it ok for me to apply for EEA3 approximately one month after my husbands EEA4 application as I am away? What would happen to the documents? Would I just ask for joining the applications together..?
Do you need to apply?
You do not need to obtain documents confirming your right of residence in the UK if you are a family member of an EEA national.
However, you may be inconvenienced if you do not obtain this confirmation, as:
- you may have difficulty proving that you are lawfully resident in the UK;
- if you leave the UK, you will usually need to obtain an EEA family permit before returning here, in order to guarantee readmission as the family member of a qualified EEA national; and
- you may find it difficult to obtain or change employment.
If the EU citizen already has PR, then CSI is not relevant for either the EU citizen or for their non-EU family.toni34 wrote:polindia,your husband need to take out csi for you,ur baby and imself,then you can claim to be self sufficient tru ur husband income
I am curious where this information comes from? It is exactly my case and I want to know do I need to have CSI as I am a student and already have PR (permit of residence).Directive/2004/38/EC wrote:If the EU citizen already has PR, then CSI is not relevant for either the EU citizen or for their non-EU family.toni34 wrote:polindia,your husband need to take out csi for you,ur baby and imself,then you can claim to be self sufficient tru ur husband income
PR is not permit of residence but it is Permanent Residence. If you have not lived in the UK for 5 years exercising treaty rights, then you don't have a PR and you will need CSI if you are a student.Einarr wrote:IIt is exactly my case and I want to know do I need to have CSI as I am a student and already have PR (permit of residence).
