Confirming automatic right to work for non-EU family member

Post by AlienX » Sun Nov 20, 2011 7:34 pm

Hi All

Can anyone please direct me to some official UK or EU source/s where it is clearly stated there are no any type permit / authorisation required for non-EEA family member of EEA national to legally work in UK (or any state if EU source; assuming EEA national is a legal resident in that state).

Need to show it to my employer as a confirmation.

Thank you

Print off the directive and show them.

The EEA Family Permit and the Residence Card both say the family member can work. Or is this somebody who has no UKBA documentation that says they can work?
