I have some doubts regarding my right/possibility to stay in the UK if my husband (EEA citizen) goes to his country of origin during 1 year.
Here's the background of our situation:
We got married on July 2012 (in his country), I joined him in the UK in September, applied for EEA2 and received RC on the 7 of February 2013 (valid until 2018). Everything very straightforward, no problems at all. The relationship is good, we are happy. Recently I've became self-employed and am working on my career development here. So far, so good.
My husband made the decision of changing career path, so apart from working he's been attending courses, etc. Recently, he received an offer to go to his country of origin to get some training. The duration of this training is 6 weeks, but then he should stay for 1 year working at the company that provided the training. He would like to do that and then return to the UK.
So, I have two questions:
- Can I stay in the UK and keep working, etc, if he's going to be away during 1 year?
- If we move together, what could happen when we come back? Would my RC still be valid or would we need to re-apply for EEA2?
Additional information: My husband is Hungarian, came to the UK in October 2006, went back to Hungary and stayed there from June to November 2007, when he returned to UK. He's lived here ever since, been working for the same company for 5 years already. If he gets the confirmation of his PR, would it make things easier?
Thank you very much in advance for your advice!
