You have to inform HO once your divorce finalised.
And if you not apply new RC ROR,then your old RC will be revoked.

It isn't compulsory that you inform the Home office about your divorce and if you choose to, they'll expect you to make application for RoR and if you are successful with your application then they will cancel your old RC and issue a new one. They only revoke your old RC if they find out that there was a tangible evidence that you were not actually qualify for the first one.
And where in directive 2004/38/ec does it say exactly that?Imshzd wrote:If you read the last line of the letter which you received with your RC,then it will clear on you,that you have to inform HO in case your family circumstances ever changed.
HO can revoke the RC in all cases in which EEA national leave the country,ceased qualified activities,ceased to be a family member of an EEA national etc etc unless non EEA national retain the rights of resident.
For more information you can read chapter 5 EU case worker instructions."
So this is very clear that after divorce non EEA national has no rights to reside in the United Kingdom unless HO confirm non EEA nationals retain rights of resident.
On my own opinion I think once you have all the documents to back your application for ROR the HO will only revoke your former RC and issued you a new RC if your application for new RC is successful .
I would think this is a reasonable summary.Ricardo wrote:I think something is wrong here. From what I know and read, RoR gives you automatic right if you fulfil the requirement for RoR.

Why no choice?Imshzd wrote:And after divorce non EEA nationals have no choice except to follow the uk home office procedure.
Why can't you back up your claim? You seemed to be relying on the HO letter accompanying the first RC which isn't relevant to RoR. It's for those who doesn't meet the requirements for RoR. A RoR application is a confirmation of existing right just like the first application for RC. Your old RC remains valid until the HO confirm your RoR and issue another RC.Imshzd wrote:Yes that's the problem.

The real question is whether Direct Effect principle extends over the ROR cases or not. Retaining rights of residence is under the provision of the EU law, not the UK domestic law. Do you know any reason why of a sudden the Direct Effect principle should stop working and cannot to be applied here? I am absolutely sure of one thing though. You cannot support your thesis "ROR is not an automatic right" by the evidence of the HO violating it.Imshzd wrote:ROR is not an automatic rights.
