Re: EEA (PR) Married EEA couple - short gaps in employment

Thank you very much :)

I'm sorting out our all documents now and I was wondering if I should include anything (photos?) supporting genuineness of our marriage apart from marriage certificate. Do they threat marriage of two EEA nationals as seriously as when non-EEA members are involved?

Re: Application for PR or PR card: form EEA (PR) - UpToDate

Hello I printed out the 85 pages of application form for EEA PR card. My question is about the sponsor. Do I need to have one? I am from EEA country (Slovakia). It says that I need to send two photos of myself and my sponsor need to send one too, also he/she needs to send nearly the same amount of ...

Re: EEA (PR) Married EEA couple - short gaps in employment

Do you mean: husband was firstly a worker in own right for period 20aa- 20bb (with good supporting evidence of his own for exercising treaty rights); then you married and he became your direct family member; ie a direct family dependent with you as sponsor from 20bb - 20cc - in this second period ...

Re: EEA (PR) Married EEA couple - short gaps in employment

If you mean can each of you apply in your own right then yes you can. I meant applying together, me as main applicant and qualified person, and my husband as combination of direct family member and "worker" prior to marriage, for period 2010 - 2015. If you can make the case you are a couple (with ...

Re: EEA (PR) Married EEA couple - short gaps in employment

Do you think it would be waste of time applying based on combination of "worker" status and direct family member for my husband, attaching cover letter with explanation? We're both EEA nationals, working and don't need to secure each other immigration status applying for extended family member ...

Re: EEA (PR) Married EEA couple - short gaps in employment

Direct family member is for a spouse & clearly begins at marriage. Unmarried couples do not include direct family members . They are extended family members - different regulations apply. For unmarried people you have to show 2 years of durable relationship - then your 5 year PR clock needs to be ...

Re: EEA (PR) Married EEA couple - short gaps in employment

I've scanned the above few posts (not gone through them with fine tooth comb) - you appear to be on right track. For the period your were not married you will have to prove you were in a durable relationship 'akin to marriage' - not just boyfriend/girlfriend or fiance/fiancee type of relationship ...

We have all documents we need: - My P60's, contract, etc. to proof I'm qualified person exercising treaty rights for 5 years ...

Re: EEA (PR) Married EEA couple - short gaps in employment

I've read all available guides and huge number of topics from this forum and I still don't now how to fill this form. :oops: I have two additional questions: 10) Does EEA family member (husband) is automatically granted PR when main applicant (me, also EEA) can satisfy treaty rights? In other words ...

Re: EEA (PR) Married EEA couple - short gaps in employment

1) If you are main applicant (in a joint application) then simply add husband as a family dependent. I can't check the form as I'm on cellphone but, from memory, you don't need to fill in sponsor section (as you are your own sponsor). If husband is sole applicant then you would add yourself in the ...

Re: EEA (PR) Married EEA couple - short gaps in employment

1) Good idea, especially if husband has gaps & you have exercised treaty rights continuously (5 years) as a qualified person. 2) Your evidence of treaty rights. Both need evidence of id, relationship (with each other), residency in UK, absences within limits & etc. 3) No need - you are the sponsor ...
