EEA 3- Permanent Residence- need accurate advice please

Post by Woj81 » Wed Jun 26, 2013 7:19 am

Hi there,
I have been in Citizen Advice Bureau,immigration advice office and many places.All these professional told me different things and I am confused.I need proper and accurate advice from someone who really is experienced in immigration law please.I am a Polish citizen.

I came to London on 19 June 2008.

Started employment on 01 August 2008.

Applied for Workers Registration Scheme after few months and it was issued on 08 January 2009.

Worked in my first work from 01 August 2008-31 March 2009 (8 months).

Second work from 23 March 2009-21 July 2009( did not know I need to apply for WRS again and I do not have it from this work).

2 months break and looking for a job.

Third work from 23 September 2009- 21 November 2010( I have WRS certificate).

Fourth work from 01 November-31 December 2010.(My contract was not extended and I became involuntarily unemployed).

From 05 January 2011 until now I am on Job seekers allowance.(Already 2.5 years).

Why so long? Because I could only work part-time which is very hard to get job like that.Mostly they want full-time.I passed 2 stages of interview to Lloyds bank as cashier and my application is on hold since November 2012.I am waiting for a vacancy.Another important thing in my case is that My wife become mental ill when she delivered our son on January 2010.
Her mother came to UK to support me during this time for 6 months and she had to come back.
I have to look after my mental ill wife and my little son.My wife is on strong medication and she is on Higher rate of Disability living allowance.I have carer's allowance since January 2011 parallel with my JSA. I was refused Income support saying I did not have right to reside and I was not habitually resident in UK.I had to claim JSA to hold worker's status.In the same time I am on JSA and I am looking for work and I am on carer's allowance looking after my wife more than 35 hours a week

My wife prior to become ill worked part-time on student visa for 3 years.From 2006-2009.

It says that when you worked more than 1 year in UK and you become involuntarily unemployed you have a worker's status retained even if you are a job seeker.

My questions are:

1.Will being so long on JSA( 2.5 years) will not be included into these 5 years qualifying period for permanent residence?

2.Will not having my Workers Registration Scheme from my second work stopped me from receiving of confirmation of my PR?

3.Can I use my wife's difficult family circumstances to support my application or Home Office will not care about this at all?

Thank you for any help.
Wojciech

Sometimes when one asks a question in a very long thread, it does not get response to - especially if it's a busy day on the forum.

Anyway given that your new thread has been responded to, I am locking this one.
