Cutting off free movement of EU citizens living abroad
Posted: Wed Feb 17, 2016 4:17 pm
Hi,
I am creating this post to bring your attention to a proposal that deeply affects free movement rights for european citizens maried with non EU citizens.
The European Commission and the British government are presently proposing to dramatically reduce the fee movement rights of those EU citizens who are married to non-EU citizens and who live outside the EU.
What are the Commission and British government proposing?
The Commission intends to adopt a proposal to complement Directive 2004/38 on free movement of Union citizens in order to exclude, from the scope of free movement rights, third country nationals who had no prior lawful residence in a Member State before marrying a Union citizen
