british or not

[Obie]

In regards to any future children and grandchildren who are born overseas, provided their birth is registered at an Irish embassy overseas they will be Irish citizen. For the British Citizenship, this is not the case.

What have you been doing in Ireland, Course of study or what.

If you have been exercising some rights in Ireland, chances are McCarthy will not apply, and your husband will be entitled to rely on your Irish Nationality to enter UK.

Well at the very least, your husband should be able to qualify under Chen.

So you have never worked, even part time, in Ireland or a nordic country?

[rachel29]

That is correct.

If I started such thing as ebay business could this count as self employed?

any options as I believe has to be economicaly active so student n no good either.

[Directive/2004/38/EC]

ebay business is an option, but you need to show it is real and effective work.

Part time at McDonalds (or anywhere) is fine.

http://eumovement.wordpress.com/2011/12 ... -a-worker/ has more information about what can be considered working.

if you can drive, Dominos Pizza in the UK like to give people 10 hour/week contracts to deliver their pizza... This often means working more than 10 hours, but is also genuine work

I'd assume the amount of Domino's in Ireland the same is true there...

Having worked for both domino's and McDonalds, I would opt for Domino's a lot friendlier / relaxed work environment (as long as you do your job, your sound - in mcdonalds, the more you do, then the more they want)

I should say that I just use McDonalds as a stereotypical part time job! I don't eat there if I have a choice.

Ok, But I thought it might be best to share my own experience there etc

@Rachel..

Obviously working for somebody else is easier to prove (pay slips etc) then your own business...

ebay is sufficient, just think - ebay/paypal wll be your invoices ETC...
but eBay and PayPal are expensive in the long run (all the fees soon mount up)

Personally, if your looking to sell yourself, perhaps setting up your own website/ market stall / carboot sales etc...

eBay is good as it puts your product in front of lots of people, but if your making tiny commisions/profits on that product [most ebay sales are based on like £0.10 profits etc and sell lots to make that etc - think of all the 99p items etc]

In the UK eBay is pretty much worthless with the constant price hikes for postage etc... - you have to factor all that into it...
