Who is EEA sponsor here? Is it you?zsofi1985 wrote:Good Morning,
I moved to the UK in 19.May 2011. Since then I am working. Now I am living with my partner and with our baby. I am on maternity leave. Both of us from Hungary.
We are receiving Housing benefit and Child benefit/tax credit from the previous month.
I would like to apply for the permanent resident card. does any of the mentioned benefit affect my claim?
Should I claim one for my baby as a family member or he will get it automatically.
We are not married, if my partner wouldnt like to apply for the resident card is it a problem?
Thank you very much for your help in advance
Good, so no WRS nonsense then.zsofi1985 wrote:Both of us from Hungary. The WRS was ended by that time we came in.
Our son was born in November.2015. His nationality is Hungarian because we hadnt got the 5 years when he was born.
If applying in own right applicants don't need a sponsor.zsofi1985 wrote:Thanks a lot, the only thing what I dont really understand, why do I need a sponsor ?
If you had a sponsor, you wouldn't need to prove that you were on maternity leave; you would be covered by the fact that your sponsor has been exercising treaty rights during the period. Now, if you were married to your partner, he would automatically be your sponsor. If you aren't married, as your choice of words suggests, and have not obtained a residence card as a family member of your partner (and so doing would be unusual seeing as you are Hungarian), you have to prove that you have been exercising treaty rights. I'm afraid I haven't really answered the second part of your question.zsofi1985 wrote:Just only me who would like to apply. So in this case I dont need any sponsor. Am I right?
How should I proof I am going back to work if my maternity will end in October. Is any of the above mentioned benefits could be a problem?
