Eu national partner need to continuously keep exercise its treaty rights like working/studying/self employment etc to keep active its non-eu national partner's legal status leading to settlement. Therefore, till the time your EEA partner got uk PR status must have been exercising its treaty rights to enable you to also get permanent residence. Otherwise you might have to apply another non-eu residence permit under EU rule or apply for FLRM the spouse of settled person under uk expensive route.

Hi Seagul,

Thank you for your reply, my EEA national polish wife she does hold British PR since Jan2017 does it still means she needs to exercise treaty rights???
May be I am wrong but I thought if any EEA National has British PR they are not obliged to follow treaty rights like working! Which my polish wife isn't doing since birth of our child since 2016 Jan.

Please guide meI am thinking right or not and what steps shall I take to cement my future with my family in this country?

Thank you a lot

After getting PR the EU national won't need to exercise its treaty rights further and without treaty rights she shouldn't have acquired her PR status which means she was exercising its treaty rights to get PR so as per my guess you might qualify for PR too after 5 years.

Hi Seagul,

thank you for your reply but am not sure what shall i apply for visa extension or extension in different category or PR or anything completely clueless, as you mentioned even am not sure and they might come back asking about my wife not exercising treaty rights and so on!
i might sound silly but just want to clear the confuse i have as to is British permanent residency granted through EEA regulation different to ILR under British Immigration Rules?
if you can guide me towards something would be thankful

thank you.
