You would need to prove she was exercising treaty rights (same thing as you used to apply for your initial residence card presumably on form eea2) before initiating divorce and throughout the divorce proceedings (which could take a long time if you do not want a divorce yourself).

Why "before initiating divorce and throughout the divorce proceedings"? I thought non-EEA should prove that the EEA spouse was working during the period between Decree Nisi and Decree Absolute. What does "before" means then? How far "before"?

This is a great forum. Thanks to all the volunteers who help each other and share their knowledge.

I have a question myself and would like some clarification. Thanks in advance.

• Married in Aug 2007
  Came to UK in Jan 2010
  EU spouse full-time student since then till present
  RC recieved Jun 2010
  Lived together in UK from Jan 2010 till Jun 2012 (all documents available)
  Separated in Jun 2012
  EU spouse applied for divorce
  Decree Absolute Today (May 2013)
  EU spouse full time student + has comprehensive insurance cover from divorce initiation till decree absolute (Oct 2012 till May 2013)
  I am on full-time employment since Jan 2010 till present

My questions are:
1) Can I apply for RoR on the basis that my ex was a student exercising treaty rights?

2) The RoR requires 3 years marriage, 1 year living together in UK and EU spouse exercising treaty rights on the date of divorce initiation till decree absolute and at the same time non-EU (myself) to exercise treaty rights since decree absolute - I tick all boxes, however,
- my ex is unwilling to give me any proof that she was exercising treaty rights on the date of divorce initiation till decree absolute (ie, letter form university or something like that)

What are my options?

If your EU national spouse was a student as far as i know you need to have Comprehensive insurance duration of the study

To be fully covered by the European right of free movement

if you spouse is a student, you need to provide a school, college or university letter confirming enrolment on the course. You will also need to provide a statement confirming that you have sufficient financial resources during your period of study along with supporting evidence such as a bank statement or evidence of a grant or scholarship; and evidence that you have comprehensive sickness insurance.
