Hello all!!!
If a person in British national and is self employed in the UK for last 3 years. He is also self employed in Republic of Ireland for last 6 months. Is British citizen exercising his EU rights? Can he apply for his brother as EU dependent from Republic of Ireland?

If he provides services in another EEA country even if the company is located in the UK/or any other EEA country I suggest you look up the Carpenter rulling
http://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/ ... 2000CJ0060
Carpenter C-60/00 [2002] ECR I-6279
Fundamental rights affect the scope and application of Community law. In Carpenter, the Court weaved principles of respect for family and private life from Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights into its analysis of the rights of Union citizens. It concluded that the right of a minor child to reside in a Member State under Community law brought with it a corollary right for his mother to reside there as well.

Dear Casa
Yes, you are right, he is both self employed in UK and Republic of Ireland.
