I am a NON-EU family member of a Romanian citizen and I received a residence permit for 5 years on my passport.
I had a new passport issued now and I would like to know what is the procedure to transfer my permit from the old to the new passport.

No, you cannot. This is for all other UK based visas.UK_BR5 wrote: i thought i could use the form TOC to do the trick and just pay the £165 to get the job done!

No it is not reset. Remember that your UK residential qualifying period starts from the day of your marriage to our EU spouse and not when a residence document is issued.so if i applied for a new one , does this reset my 5 years clock to the PR ?

this is what i understood too, i thought that the EU citizen had to continue 5 years of continuous residence first so that he/she will be able to apply for PR and consequently the spouse. not after 5 years of marriage,kindly clarifybototo wrote:I understood his comment to be "from the date of your marriage" and nothing to do with your spouse's residence.
That's right. 5 years of continuous residence while exercising treaty rights.UK_BR5 wrote:this is what i understood too, i thought that the EU citizen had to continue 5 years of continuous residence first so that he/she will be able to apply for PR and consequently the spouse. not after 5 years of marriage,kindly clarifybototo wrote:I understood his comment to be "from the date of your marriage" and nothing to do with your spouse's residence.
