Hi All,

I have been in a relationship with a European for over 7 years and married for three years. Unfortunately our marriage is not working and we are about to file for divorce in the very near future. I was wondering if there is any situation in which i can continue to reside in the UK. I am currently having the EEA2 family member visa. Another titbit to add is that I will complete 10 years in this country in July. Is there anything i can do in order to stay considering that i have spent most of my adult life in the UK.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Shoot for RoR.
See https://www.gov.uk/family-permit/retain ... -residence

Can i apply for this before my divorce has come through ?

you need to apply for divorce and get decree absolute before you can apply ROR as its a major requirement.

By the way my divorce will be finalised, I would have completed 10 years in this country. Would that entitle me to apply for ILR or do I still have to apply for ROR.

Thanks
