Q6: What is CSI and do I need it?

CSI stands for Comprehensive Sickness Insurance and under EEA regulations is required to be held by EEA national who exercise treaty rights as a student and self sufficient. In the case of self-sufficient, CSI should also cover family members.

Workers (employed, self employed) don’t need CSI.

If you are required to hold CSI, the HO would expect you to have a private health insurance or a non-UK EHIC. This has nothing to do with eligibility to NHS services (which every resident in the UK is entitled to) but in order to recognise those periods in order to obtain Permanent Residence under EEA regulations.

If a person cease work and started studies, they will need to hold CSI immediately prior to their studies, in order for their residence to be in accordance with the EEA Regulations, except they retain their status as a worker.

The EU needs to be a worker, student or self-sufficient person and comply with the conditions specified.
