Re: Residence card for non-EEA husband of dual UK/EU citizen

Hello again and sorry for my late reply. I am slightly confused by your post Richard, when I acquired British citizenship I was allowed to retain my Hungarian citizenship too, so why should we have revoked my husband's residence card? I was solely a Hungarian citizen both at the time of our marriage ...

Re: Residence card for non-EEA husband of dual UK/EU citizen

Just to let you both know, this is what Your Europe Advice emailed me: Thank you for contacting Your Europe Advice. We understand that your husband currently holds a residence card for family members of EU citizens following an EEA2 application. We further understand this was granted to your husband ...

Re: Residence card for non-EEA husband of dual UK/EU citizen

Thank you both for all the help. We will make an EEA application shortly after our 5th wedding anniversary in March next year. Fingers crossed it will all work out. I do feel that our case is stronger than some I have come across but we must be prepared for all possibilities. Thank you once again ...

Re: Residence card for non-EEA husband of dual UK/EU citizen

Also, as you seem to be much more knowledgeable in these matters than I could ever hope to be, would the EEA applications be affected if we were to leave the EU? I know slightly off topic but as the referendum will take place before we submit the application, I thought I'd ask.

Re: Residence card for non-EEA husband of dual UK/EU citizen

Thank you for your words of encouragement and all your help. Yes, we got married in the UK in March 2012. I am planning to send the form off shortly before that, around mid-February. On the form I obviously have to declare I hold BC too, do you think it is not likely to affect the application then ...

Re: Residence card for non-EEA husband of dual UK/EU citizen

Noajthan *deep sigh* sorry, not abandoning the EU route. It's just all the things that have been previously mentioned now make me feel like application will just get rejected, for example transitional arrangements for dual citizens, I was not a BC in 2012. If it was a first-time application I would ...

Re: Residence card for non-EEA husband of dual UK/EU citizen

To be able to use form FLR (M) or FLR (FP) would we not have to meet the income threshold of £18,600? This is not possible for us at the moment as I am currently unemployed.

Richard, we have been living together since we got married in March 2012 and so hubby is not here as a visitor.

Re: Residence card for non-EEA husband of dual UK/EU citizen

My very limited understanding of the McCarthy case is that Mrs McCarthy has never exercised her treaty rights. I had already completed my five-year qualifying period in August 2011, having both worked and studied at university during that time. My mistake was not applying for a permanent residence ...

Re: Residence card for non-EEA husband of dual UK/EU citizen

Yes, I have all the documentary proof required to show I was exercising treaty rights during those five years - I had to submit these with the citizenship application too. If I still wanted to get confirmation of PR for 2006-2011, do you know if it is possible to backdate an application? Although I ...

Re: Residence card for non-EEA husband of dual UK/EU citizen

Ok so hopefully I am correct in saying that: My hubby can still apply via the EEA route as residence card was granted on 24 May 2012 before I acquired BC in November 2014. I don't need to show that I am exercising my treaty rights after the qualifying five-year period which I completed in August ...

Re: Residence card for non-EEA husband of dual UK/EU citizen

RC was issued 24 May 2012.

Does my being unemployed at the moment affect my residence card application? Form does not have an option to state that I am unemployed now as a stay-at-home mum but had completed the qualifying five-year period previously.

Re: Residence card for non-EEA husband of dual UK/EU citizen

Sorry for the confusion. He was granted a residence card of a family member of an EEA national valid for 5 years.

If application via EEA route gets rejected, is there any way we could still stay together as a family? We have a 3-year-old who also holds BC. Is there anything else we could do?

Re: Residence card for non-EEA husband of dual UK/EU citizen

Thank you for your help. I arrived in the UK in June 2006 and hubby in April 2009. We got married in March 2012 which is when I applied for the FP. Received FP in May 2012. So am I correct in saying that my BC does not affect his EEA4 application and he can still take the EEA route as FP was issued ...

Hoping someone could help me. I hold dual British & Hungarian citizenship and my husband is an Indian citizen. I acquired British citizenship in November 2014. I have been living and working in the UK since August 2006 but I am currently a stay-at-home mother. My husband and I got married in March ...
