The requirements for CSI for students has been introduced in the EEA regulations back in 2006 but only started to be enforced in 2011. That is why the HO would exempt you from CSI if you have applied for the blue card as a student (as they didn't enforced it when you applied, then can't ask you to have it afterwards).Grazka wrote:Thanks for your reply.
The requirement for the private medical insurance was introduced in 2011. Do I need it when I was student before that, exactly between may 2004-2005 and then 2006-2010? But anyway it happens that I had that insurance from Vanbreda international since May 2004 until 30 April 2009. As you probably noticed it didn't cover last 10 days of my qualifying period (I exercised TR from 10 May 2004 to 10 May 2009). Also, I have the blue registration certificate since 2007, I was full time student when I applied for it. Is that helpful in my case? Many thanks for your help
Yes. You can add some notes on page 13.Grazka wrote:1. That means that in the AN form I should include 2004-2009 as my qualifying period instead of "last 5 years" as it is required in the form - is that correct? Should I attach some explanation letter about it?
Yes (if you have obtained PR).2. Another issue is WRS as I am EU A8. I started working in 2010 so after I acquired PR and I did not register with WRS as I didn't need to exercise TR any more - is that correct?
As a student, you just need a signed self declared statement. You don't need to provide any proof to support that statement.3. Regarding funding as a student, since 2006 I was receiving studentship and got a letter from uni stating the figure I was paid every month. However earlier, between 2004 and 2005 I was self-funded student - basically I was suported by my husband (non-EU working outside of UK) - should I state I was self sufficient or supported by family member? Does it matter at all for the application? And which documents should I provide? My husband was paid on US account and I was also using it initially before I opened a bank account in here and was getting transfers from my husband's account.
If you were self-sufficient during that time, you should provide evidence of CSI to cover that period and proof of income/savings.4. Between Oct 2005 and oct 2006 I was looking and applying for post-graduate studentships. I was obviously suported by my husband at that time and did not rely on any public funds. Is that again self-sufficiency or unemployment during which I nedded to be self-sufficient?
As I said, you can apply for EEA3 just to test your documents (2004-2009) for free and then without waiting for one year (but with the burden of submitting the documents again) apply for BC.Grazka wrote:Thanks for your reply.
I was considering applying for EEA3 first but I'm not sure whether I can apply fo naturalisation immidiately after that or need to wait another year.
I also passed the Life in the UK test some time ago and would like to apply for naturalisation before new rules are in power.
Thanks again for your advice. I really apprecaite your time and effort to answer all my questions.
