I've been searching for information for Irish citizens and the Common Travel Area, since my Canadian spouse( married 28 years so far...) and I are planning on retiring to the UK... I've been in Canada since I was a kid, so I won't be coming from Ireland, but I'll be using my Irish passport.
I understand that as an Irish citizen, I'm allowed to settle in the UK pretty much as soon as I arrive, but I'm totally lost on him coming along... Does he need to get an EEA spouse visa? Or is he allowed to enter the UK with me if we have our marriage certificate?
Would I have to prove I can support him since we're coming in as retirees and won't be working? From what I can see, you have to prove you have a minimum in bank, which we definitely will have no problem... Do we both need to pay the NHS fee? Or just him?
I'm so confused... I swear I've spent 40 hours on here trying to find information for Irish living in the UK, but I ended up more confused than ever!
Thanks
