Residency Card Revocation after Brexit

Hi gyes, I lived in the UK for about 16 years now and I originally claimed asylum but was refused. However, now I have a none Eu family member resident Permit through a relationship to an EU citizen. Dose any one knows what happens to my residence card after brexit? do I have to apply for asylum again? or do I have to go back to my previous asylum claim? what will happen to my state in the UK ?



Kind Regards

Hello

Nobody is going to revoke your EEA family member card after Brexit.

What type of relationship do you have to your sponsor? Are you married or something? Are you still in this relationship? Is your family member still in the UK?

Provided the situation didn't change since you got your card, you can apply for the EU Settlement Scheme and you will be Brexit-proof.

Brexit is not retroactive. It is supposed to limit entry and stay rights of EU citizens who arrived in the UK after Brexit day. Brexit will not affect the existing rights of people who already live and work in the UK.

Even in the worst case scenario of no-deal, people who already have made a life here have until 31st December 2020 to apply for the Settlement Scheme, which is the way to convert EEA Residence Cards into UK residence cards.

So no one is coming to "revoke" your or your EU family member's residence cards (provided the relationships still exists and they remain a qualified EU citizen or have acquired permanent residence), but you need to take action and apply to the Settlement Scheme, for which you have plenty of time.
