Hi! I'm a Swedish citizen married to an American citizen and we're currently living in the US. I'm a bit confused on what the requirements are for us to move to the UK. The more I read the more confused I get.. I've understood that we can apply for an EEA family permit from outside the country. What confuses me are the requirements on me as the EU citizen. It says that I as the EU citizen need to be a ‘qualified person’ (working, looking for work, self-employed, studying or self-sufficient) to qualify or "be travelling with the non EU member to the UK within 6 months of the date of application". Does that mean that as long as I don't already live in the UK I don't need a job or anything? Just proof that we'll be moving over together (plane tickets etc)?
From my understanding my husband would then need to apply for Residence Permit once we're over. After that, do we both need to apply for pre-settled status or is that just me as the EU citizen?
Thanks,
Amanda
