I am non EU married to EU citizen (Polish + Naturalised Irish ) Since 2009 holds stamp 4EUfam. We found out couple of weeks ago that we are expecting a baby in our family..
![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
We both have full time jobs and my wife is exercising her EU Treaty right since December 2004.
Now my question is since she wants to go to Poland in 4 months time and she will stay there for 10 months. She would still be employed by the way but I don't know how does it work.
Do I lose my right of residence the day she leave the country or if she is out 6 months. In October I will go to Poland for 2 months and stay with her.
I can also apply for Irish citizenship I think because she is Irish also but spouse of Irish citizen takes too long to process so I didn't apply and I am waiting to finish 5 years residence before I apply.
I am sorry for writing too much I just want to make sure how long she can stay out of Ireland before I lose my right of residence.
Thanks again
Regards,
