EEA Permanent Residency application Section 9

[Nano17]

Hi,

I am a EU citizen and have been living in the UK since 2007 (one year of university, followed by employment). I have a few questions on Section 9 of the application form.

1) Given that I have been a resident for more than 5 years, do I need to provide detail on my entire time in the UK or simply the last 5 years?

2) I have some very short gaps between jobs (up to 1 week each). How do I reflect these in the form?

3) I only have digital payslips and P60s for some years of my employment as physical documents were not issued by my some of my former employers. I have read in the guidance notes that only original document, i.e. no copies, would be accepted. Can I submit print-outs of the digital payslips or P60s?

Thanks for your help in advance!

1) PR requires much more than 'residency'.
Depends when you actually acquired the holy grail of PR.
It could have been 2012.
In which case submit rock-solid evidence from 2007 until now.

Did you have CSI whilst at uni?

2) Provide timeline of your economic activity

• job1 from-to
  job 2 from-to

3) Preferably get them authorised in some way.
Provide other evidence in case they are disregarded.
(Soft copies are easily manipulated).

Hi

thank you very much for your quick reply.

1) I have had private health insurance in my home country while at university, but a translation of the insurance certificate is likely costly, so I would like to avoid this. This is why I would prefer to my employment (since autumn 2008) as evidence if possible.

2) thanks!

3) I could submit original bank statements showing my salary payment in addition to the P60s.

Thanks!

1) Declare timeline. Indicate health cover.

3) Also job contract; letter from employer & etc.
As per comprehensive PR guidance.

You would do yourself a favour demonstrating you had had the foresight to acquire PR 'back in the day' as you can then shoot for the privilege of citizenship once you have DCPR (instead of waiting a further 12 months free of immigration time restrictions).
Unless you have a BC spouse by which the time restriction is also removed.
