I am inside UK and the application form for retained right of residence is for outside UK so how come I could apply for retained right of residence from inside UK as it clearly mentioned in the form,...(you must be outside UK)

Thanks very much for replying

As I have been to many solicitors they said I dont need to apply for ROR as if u divorce its automatically ROR they are saying retain right of residence means you must have decree absolute.
And they are also saying I am eligible next year sep 2016 for permanent residence.

Now I am having all the documents and yeah she is working paying taxes and I have all the documents from last 4 years as well.

Now the solicitor says you have to tell them why u spend 14 months outside UK its not a big issue .

Please let me know is this right or not? shall i apply for permanent residence in sep 2016 am i eligible and what about 14 months as my mother got ill and I was with my mother to care of her.

Please
It's all rubbish they are talking.

You were out for 14 months.

This has the potential of breaking your continuity of residence, which is relevant to regulation 10 (5).

Funny the solicitors or so called solicitors did not advise to resolve this or advised that this will have a significant impact on Permanent Residence.

Where should i go now ?

why my friend got permanent residence if he divorced he didnt applied for ROR kind of thing

I am here on this forum to get a helpful advice

how to get permanent residence after divorce short question?
If I have got decree absolute then what to do
this is my question please
Your friend's case may be different from your case & your timings.

You need to retain rights to have a legal basis to stay in UK & continue towards acquiring PR!

If no RoR then no UK.

Rights under EU law occurs automatically , once acquired, it it exist without the need for application to get it.

I am afraid that both you and Imran's solicitor have advised him in a way that I think is wrong.

Imran's absence was excessive, he will need to show that the absence fall within the important reason that will not break continuity of residence, for him to qualify.

As things stand, and in the absence of the justification required in Regulation 3, Imran does not qualify for ROR, neither does he qualify for the Residence Card he hold and neither with he qualify for PR next year.

You are unlikely to be in a position to apply for confirmation of PR yet.
You have previously been advised to dig into the impact of your absence from UK.
Apart to chatting to some 'solicitor friends' it appears you have not done that.

I suggest you get some professional help as you appear to be making no effort to understand the information and links posted.

Please for my own knowledge, if Imran EEA partner was present and exercising treaty right while away, does the non EEA absence matter. I was under the impression that only EEA absence will affect the RC. Aslo - if Imran no longer qualify due to such lenghy absence how come imran was allow to enter the UK and visa not curtailed? Maybe officer never checked nor asked how long op was away :?: .
GOD BLESS!!!
