I came here 5 years ago , and had a Residence card visa of a family member of EEA national! My stepfather became british 1 year ago, but still holds Latvian Passport. I need to apply for EEA4 now, I am 20 years old and lived here for 5 years already. But, according to what i have read, when he became British , he stopped exercising treaty rights, because his country Latvia does not allow dual citizenship ? he lived in London for 7 years already. I dont now what i have to do now
I called to Home Office , and they said that it does not matter , and that this situation is between my stepfather and HIS country Latvia, so that i can just apply normally to EEA4 . But, there is a question on application, when my stepfather needs to fill in- what is your nationality? and after- do you also hold British Citizenship? As far as i feel it means that he will put- i am Latvian, and after- yes i hold British Passport, and they will check if Latvia allow dual citizenship?? please help me as i dont know what to do!


I lived with them since i was 16

Thank you very much!!

Did your step dad become British before you'd lived here for 5 years? If so, then it's a bit complicated but highly debatable and arguable that you should still qualify. Please give us the exact breakdown of all the dates, when you first came, whose dependant were you and for how long, when your step dad became British and so on. The trick is in the dates. It wouldn't matter that he later became British so you may still make it.
