As a non-EEA national (partner of EEA national) on a 5 year family permit that is due to expire in 2 months and staying in the UK (the whole duration)..... what should I do now?
1. What will happen if I do nothing, is it automatically renewed?
2. What will happen if I apply after it expires, will I be deported?
I guess now I am eligible for a "right to permanent residence in the UK"?
3. But what if I don't want that, and just want to continue on my FP? Do I have to leave the country and come back?
4. What is the difference, between a FP and a "residence card"? They both last 5 years? So that's 10 years in total if I apply one after the other?
(Please put number 1 - 4 next to your answer so I know what reply I am readin
