British citizen marrying Cuban citizen, moving to Italy?

Hello everyone,

I hope you are all well. I desperately need your input to these questions, I have called the Italian Embassy in London (no help whatsoever), posted a question on the europa.eu site and spent hours looking on websites. I need to make sure I completely understand what I am required to do before I leave the UK as the internet/calls/printing will be really difficult from Cuba.

I am a British Citizen currently residing in the UK, I plan to leave the UK for good on 22.05.15. I am engaged to a Cuban residing in Havana. We plan to marry in August this year in Cuba. In September-October would like to fly directly to Milan, Italy, where we plan to make our new home together, permanently.

The best and most useful site I have found is:

So how I understand it is that we need to to the following:
1. Apply for a National Visa (D) (Formulario Vista Nationale (D) from Cuba for Iccel to enter Italy with me, correct? Does anyone know how long this takes?
2. We do not need to fulfil any of the residency/salary/job/savings/permanent place to live/- requirements to enter Italy together, correct? (As he will be travelling as a family member of an EU citizen, and not travelling to my member state)
3. On arriving in Italy we register with the Police. Correct?
4. I have three months to register, find a job, home, etc and apply for Residency. Correct?
5. Once I have residency then we can then apply for a EU family residency card as my husband. Correct?

Any help, advice, tips, website links on whether I have understood this all correctly would be very gratefully received.

Many thanks,
Sarah
