Hi

Could you please shed some light on this matter!!

I am a non-EU resident and last year i obtained the EEA family visa for next 5 years as my wife is from the EU. In June this year, i was eligible to apply for 10 year long resident, which i did in June and last week I got my indefinite leave to remain.

Here is the problem, i was able to travel freely with my wife to any other EU countries under my EEA family visa. however, as i just got my passport and biometric residence permit card for my indefinite leave to remain back. UKBA have cancelled my EEA family visa (there was a red stamp over my EEA family visa saying "LEAVE SUPERSEDED BY BIOMETRIC RESIDENCE PERMIT".)

My question is that if i want to go to any EU countries, do i need to apply for visa?

thanks for your help in advance.
