ILR 10 years and EEA Family member

Post by kamransh » Sat Jan 25, 2014 11:34 am

Hi guys, I have a question about applying for ilr long residency. I have been in the uk for 10 years now as follows

4 years as a Student
2 years as PSW
2 years tier 1 general and
2 years as a family member of eea national.

My question is specifically regarding 2 years spent as a family member. My wife is a full time worker as is exercising treaty rights. Would my 2 years spent as family member count in 10 years? I have been reading the UKBA guidance http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitec ... iew=Binary and on page 27 its talks about case workers discretion to count the time sent as EEA family member in long residency. What exactly does this mean? Is this only applicable in some special circumstances?

Thanks

Amber

Thanks Amber_,
would I need to send my wife's P60 or pay slips for 2 years to prove that she is exercising treaty rights?

Hi,
I will be applying in March.
You will have to prove that your wife was exercising treaty rights by showing p60 for years spent as eea family member.

Time spent under family member of eea national will count in your 10 year residency however your eea residence permit will be cancelled when you get ILR ( so no more visa free travel within Europe)

Thanks for reply but my worry is I didn't meet the tier1 targets.do I need to meet those targets by paying more tax of the 2011-2013 years?will that time be counted as legal?

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for the update. I belong to the same case and I'm due to apply for ILR in couple of months. Could anyone please recommend a wise Solicitor or case worker towards the above scenario.

Regards,
Rbemo
