Advice needed as evidence for exercising treaty rights

[mikilo2008]

My husband is self employed but he is not making much money. He found a job in Oxford and we are considering he picks up the job. I am applying for a resident card based on his self employment this month but will like to add other document s once he start in oxford he will be coming home every weekend. Does it matter if he lives or have a family in newcastle and work in Oxford because it will reflect in his payslip.

NO ; as long as he is Working doesn't matter how much he earn. But it's good if the hours is 12 minimum per week ( but i've heard UKBA accept even 8 hours per week too )


and yes it also doesn't matter where he live and work. How long you two been married ?

A lot of families live apart in the week to save the commute (fuel etc is often more than a cheap flat / houseshare)...

just make sure that all bank accounts etc remain registered in your home address (as in where you live). Also, might be worth getting a joint bank account etc (to show financial linking etc - although not required it might help).

I wouldnt be supprised if you get the marriage interview

As for the low self employed income... have you got WTC / CTC ETC?

as your husband is a worker, just ensure that you are getting everything you are entitled to... if he earns more this year, tax credits next year will be lower (and thus could begin a vicous cycle...)

is there a reason for waiting for your EEA application? - how come you didnt apply before the fee introduction?

Thanks wiggly,

Well, the interview will not be any problem. Am applying for our Son as well who is 5. We have pictures of our relationship dated back 1998 till date and other evidences to show its not a sham. He was living in Ireland and he just relocated to the UK few weeks before the wedding. We couldn't apply before the introduction of the fees because he has to get something doing and show evidence of exercising his treaty rights. How is your case?

As your EEA national partner is going to start new job then why you want to add further documents which can cause even complication between self employment and employment. For a straight case worker can be opted only for which Job contract and/or employer letter can serve the purpose in contrary to self employment where business accounts, invoices, accountant letter etc. will need.
