With reference to either the 2006 or the revised 2016 EEA regulations, article 6: (2) A person who is no longer working shall not cease to be treated as a worker for the purpose of paragraph (1)(b) if— (a) he is temporarily unable to work as the result of an illness or accident; would a brief period...

One year in this context will be the anniversary of the date you first started working in the UK. That does not mean only period when you were physically employed. A period of jobseeking following involuntary unemployment having worked for a certain period, or period when you were unwell are all ad...

As she's been in UK since 1993, she'll have to apply for a DCPR; then she'll be entitled to UC.

Hi Rooibos
No idea how to - don't think my account has tgat facility.
Wrote an e-mail to the mods about a month ago asking for PMs to be enabled - no answer.

Ok, what's the other forum you mentioned? I tried to register an account but it wouldn't let me.

On another immigration forum I'm part of, UKCEN, they advise that gaps in employment of up to six months, whether you were in or out of the UK, are fine - given once you have worked in the UK, you retain worker status for at least six months, sometimes more. A number of people with multiple gaps in...

Thanks crazydaz but this doesn't really address my question.

For the purpose of obtaining a DCPR and with reference to: - Universal Credit guidance (see C1392 p. 17) and - The Immigration (European Economic Area) Regulations 2016 (reg 6(2)(b)), how should the fragment " having been employed in the United Kingdom for at least one year " be interpreted? Is that...

Yes, some have successfully got PR, some not. If you look at some earlier posts (maybe 1-2 years ago) you'll find some of these cases. It all depends on the caseworker, but, strictly speaking, you have to prove 5 years without gaps. https://www.immigrationboards.com/search.php?st=0&sk=t&sd=d&sr=post...

Presumably the full final document or a summary? You decide.

Why was the arrest recorded on the PNC in the first place? Did you request a SAR from ACRO:

You can have gaps of up to six months in any one year of the five - without needing to give any evidence of what you were doing.

Where do you get this from? It'd be good for me, though.

I am not sure if this has ever been linked here. If not, here it is:

EU Settlement Scheme caseworker guidance

A worrying article here: http://www.politics.co.uk/blogs/2018/11/05/away-from-prying-eyes-govt-stitches-up-eu-settled-status-sys There's been a little-noticed move by the government on the post-Brexit EU migrant system, which suggests - contain your surprise - that its promises aren't worth the pape...

There were 2 questions on the Voting Form Do you want to Leave or Remain in the EU ,you made your choice and ticked the Box.The Govt said that it would implement the final decision.Nothing about a Deal or a Second referendum.I am afraid that the remoaners must accept the fact that they lost the vot...

If you have been in the UK for 5+ years, just apply for a PR card. It costs very little and secures your residency.

Guess what impact Brexit has on an EU national with a PR card. Yeap. Zilch. Nada.

Just shows you have no clue of what you're talking about.

Can you give us a TL;TR?

And does it mean the settled status is now enshrined in law? I'm still not convinced about it.

The so called Settled Status is just a political promise and it is not enshrined in law. So far it was tied with the destiny of the Withdrawal Agreement, and we all know we're probably heading towards a No Deal. We have a promise made by a soon to be removed PM of going on with the Settled Status, b...

Hi guys, I have read as much as I could about the new scheme for settled and pre-settled status but one thing I could not understand. At the moment, an EU citizen is required to have lawfully resided, exercising treaty rights, in the UK for 6 years and to have acquired Permanent Residence, before t...

I have no doubt that Rees Mogg’s letter is merely a bit of sabre rattling in the war of political divisions now existing.

It's safe to assume the worst. Murphy's Law applies to Brexit, too.
