Hello guys I'm hoping some people can give me some information here

Me non eu citizen (Turkey)
My wife eu citizen (Netherlands)

Married in Turkey 2016
Move to UK 2017
I have stile valid resident card from UK

We also applied eu settlement scheme too, we both granted pre settled.

Almost 3 months now we seperated, she back to Amsterdam, she is not living in the UK and she say I won't come back to UK again I'm in the UK. I have my own business. Probably she gonna sign for divorce soon.

I believe I can apply retain rights resident card if you married more then 3 years and also live in the UK least 1 year, we did only problem is she is not in the UK now,
Can I apply retain rights resident card if she left already UK

I lost my mind, I don't wanna lost my business in the UK, she is not really care, she said you have 5 years pre settle status, you can live and work but I don't think so i can live here after divorce 😔

Pls help. Me thank you so. Much

For you to retain right to reside your wife must be a resident in UK when you apply for divorce. Unfortunately you are not eligible since she has left already.

What about if my wife back to UK and we start divorce in the UK?
