RETAINED RIGHT OF RESIDENCE- EEA national exercising treaty
Posted: Sat Mar 12, 2016 4:27 pm
This is my situation. I have been married for
5 years with my wife who is from Poland and we have been living
together
in England since Feb,2012 till today. I got a resident permit until
2019.
My wife was working for initial 2 years until in 2014 she decided
to continue her study and currently a student.
At the beginning we were not aware that we both need to have
comprehensive sickness insurance to exercise treaty right as
student, hence for ONE YEAR we were NOT covered by sickness
insurance . However at present we are covered by private
comprehensive sickness insurance.
Unfortunately things are not working for us and we going to get a
divorce so I would like to understand what will happens to me in
this situation if i want to continue to stay in UK.
1. I understand that I can apply for RETAINED RIGHT OF RESIDENCE,
but what i'm not sure is do i need to provide evidence of EEA
partner was exercising treaty right thought the period of our
marriage (5 years) for my retained right of residence application?
2. Is it enough to show if EEA national have been exercising free
movement rights
at which the marriage was legally terminated (that is, when the
decree
absolute was obtained).
2. Currently I'm permanent employee working for one of the reputed
origination in UK. Will i be eligible to apply for Tier 2 (General)
visa if my employee is willing to sponsor ?
