I married in Jan 2010. I was issued with a RC in Aug 2010 until Aug 2015. Before our marriage, my husband had lived and worked here in the UK for 7yrs ( we have recently requested employment history from HMRC as he did not apply for PR). We separated in Nov 2012 but Home Office informed me that since we have not divorced I am still his family member and my RC is still valid (based on a subject access request I made). We have started divorce last month Aug 2014 and hopefully looking to have decree absolute somewhere in Nov 2014. I would have preferred to apply for ROR for my security first then PR later but a solicitor mentioned that I qualify for PR in January 2015 so I can apply for that straight away which also seems very ideal for me.
I have these documents.
1)Proof of residence since 2010 for both of us (more of mine than his though, but we have 4 yrs joint bank statements and 1 year utility bills)
2)Hopefully a divorce certificate soon
3)My husband's P60 from 2007 to 2012(all on one letter from HMRC) but there is a year gap in 2011 where he was not working nor on job seekers allowance. That's the reason we have requested for his previous employment history from 2003 to prove that he was already qualified for PR by 2010 so the gap should not affect the application.
4)My payslips and bank statements from 2010 (But I will use payslips only after decree absolute)
5)My husband's bank statement, P60 and pay slips for 2012/2013 and 2013/2014.
Questions
a)Please are there any other documents I need to add or take away from the list above?
b)When filling EEA2 for ROR does his employer need to sign as they did for my first EEA2 or its not necessary?
c)Also please can anyone advice on the success of a PR without first obtaining ROR?
Any advice and suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thank you all in advance.
