I recently divorced from my wife and she did not object to me seeing my daughter in the uk,please what documents do I need to be able to retain my right, my ex wife is willing to write a detailed letter saying I am allowed access to my daughter or should she get an affidavit saying that

If your wife was exercising her treaty right until the date of divorce and if she is willing to provide you all the documents like pay slip P60 or self employment docs if she is self employed, then she, provided such a letter or not is not important. Only her treaty right is.

How long were you married for?

Was your ex-wife exercising treaty rights at time of divorce?

If your marriage had lasted for lss than 3 years, was there a court order, or was there a statement of arrangement for your child, prior to the divorce being finalised, confirming that access will take place in the United Kingdom?

@ Obie ,There was no court order or contact arrangement during divorce,cos she her boyfriend then told her not to have anything to do with me, marriage lasted 3 years 5 months,she was self employed and was paid cash by her customers, she issues invoice to them and she paid her national insurance contribution and filed tax and paid all,she also got an accountant who did an audited account for her,so what do you think about all this

Provided you lived together in the UK for at list one year of the 3.5 years, you will not need the access to child route.

You should be able to secure Retention in the circumstance, provided you can demonstrate your wife was exercising genuine self employment activity at the time of divorce.

@ Obie,if I am provided with her audited account done by an accountant,proof of national insurance paid,tax returns filed and paid and invoices during divorce,is that ok for me to retain my right
