Good afternoon,
I would appreciate some clarification in the following matters:
1.
A non EEA spouse – current under EEA family permit - held several visas categories before such: Tier4, Tier 5, Tier 2.
It makes a total of about 7 years.
If she apply under the new EU Settlement Scheme, would those previous years count towards the new settle status or she will received a pre-settled status - Note she only has been on EU family permit for less than a year since 2018/3
2.
I am a EU citizen holding a permanent residence since 2017.
Able to apply for the naturalisation anytime as more than one year has already passed since I received the residence card.
My doubt is if I should apply for my naturalisation before applying under the new EU Settlement Scheme or later?
I understand getting my British citizenship before applying under the new EU scheme would not allow my non EU family member apply under the rights under the EU law.
She would have to follow the UK law rather than the European she is currently holding, losing the right under new EU settlement scheme
3.
Lastly, If I decide to change my permanent residence to the new EU Settlement scheme would I be able to apply for my naturalisation when receive my settled status? Should I wait again a year or anytime? Use another route?
As I mentioned above I am holding my permanent residence since 2017.
Looking forward to hearing from you guys!
