PR and divorce after
Posted: Thu Aug 21, 2014 1:30 pm
When a person who has obtained Permanent Residence gets a divorce - does that person need to do something like obtaining a right to remain? - also, it happened so I got the PR only in May this year, but after almost 8 years of marriage we are getting a divorce this September. Even to me the timing seems suspicious of deceit, but.. such were the circumstances. Can they revoke my PR on suspicion of fraud?
I thought of another couple of worrying moments:
- given the circumstances (intend to stay in UK, no longer spouse of EU national) could this divorce cause problems when applying for UK citizenship? - expecting to do so early summer 2015. The whole applying for citizenship seems so scary now..
- whenever I enter the UK I get asked questions like "who is your EU sponsor and where are they now"?.. After the divorce, what do I say? - again, do I need to obtain something to show that I have a PR, but no longer have a sponsor?
- also, if UK does manage to think of a way of leaving the EU in 2017 my EU residence may become a shady thing to have as means of staying
PS> obviously I am a non-EU married (not for much longer) to an EU
