You must have had spend 5 years as the family member of your Slovakian wife exercising her treaty rights to acquire the ILR/PR. So technically, the clock for your Permanent Residence (PR) started from the date you came back to UK as the family member.

Ahem....he means, you can't apply for PR now because your application will be based on the EEA permit route, which started when you received the EEA family permit...so, five years before you can apply.

:D

Sakura.. that is so mean. Am I really that hard to understand?

By the way, it is 5 years from the day the OP enters the UK on the EEAFP and not from the time the EEAFP was recieved.

Haha! No, that's not it. You put (and quoting)

, but I didn't have the heart to point out your typo.

Thanks for the correction re: 5 year starting time.
