Permanent Residence & Divorce
Posted: Sat Dec 01, 2018 4:35 pm
Hi everyone,
First-time poster, needing advice please:
I am an Australian citizen married to an EU Citizen, I have been in the UK since 2012. Imminently about to get divorced and wanted to gauge thoughts on residency post divorce:
- Arrived in the UK in 2012
- Obtained EEA Residence Permit (was valid for 5 years) for Myself and Children - successfully obtained based on EU status of spouse.
- Obtained Permanent Residence in 2017 for Myself and Children - successfully obtained based on duration of time spent in the UK and EU spouse. My Permanent Residence Card states:
TYPE OF PERMIT: PERMANENT RESIDENCE
REMARKS: WORK PERMITTED / EU RIGHT TO RESIDE.
VALID UNTIL: 2027.
!!! The Big Question is: Does divorce impact my ability to reside and work in the UK?
Thanks for your time, and appreciate your advice.
