Can it not be included in the same block of time as registering with JC.karamba123 wrote:I see noajthan, thank you so much, I can not afford the PR clock to be stopped even for a couple of days... So need to scrap the idea of my partner's being a sponsor then. The worse bit I don't have any evidence of looking for a job within these 2 weeks, I was genuinely checking all the local adverts, internet etc., but never got the comprehensive sickness insurance for this period; then I decided to get registered with jobcentreplus and actively seeking for a job (I hold the evidence for this). Any ideas what more I can write/tell them to support my application?
I never thought about it, you may be right, I am worried though they would say that I delayed the registration (finished employment on 26th Nov 2010 and got registered on 15th Dec)Can it not be included in the same block of time as registering with JC.
Lump it together as 'jobseeking'.
In that case my application has been ruined?You can't be a jobseeker prior to period of unemployment/non-employment so that end time may be a grey area.
I said its a grey area.karamba123 wrote:Thank you for your advice noajthan.
If I may ask another question - should I try to send the application anyway or scrap it and try to go EEA family member/sponsor route? As I mentioned, my durable partner (we're both EEA) has been employed uninterruptedly since April 2006, we have the evidence of living together, have 2 kids and recently got married. He's PR certificate was issued in November 2016.
Is there any chance I could get PR, if yes, what route to choose? Any ideas please?
Thank you
I didn't realise that until you told me. I have always thought I could apply as his partner alternatively.You can't apply as the dependent of your durable partner (for the period you were unmarried) unless you held an EFM RC in partner's name for that time.
Without it your PR clock will have stopped.
I will try with slim chances though, apparently around 30% of current applications are being rejected.Suggest go ahead and apply in own right.
Caseworker in her wisdom will assess and weigh up your application based on all the evidence and information submitted.

Perhaps it would help if after my return from abroad I would've re-started looking for a job instead of taking maternal responsibilities.
https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... als_v3.pdfAn extended family member is not eligible for a document certifying permanent residence or a permanent resident card if they have not previously been issued with one of the above documents (RC).
Would that be a blue HO residence documentation? I have one issued on 03 August 2007, it says on it: Registration Certificate.Applying for permanent residence
Under regulation 8 of the regulations you cannot consider an applicant to be the extended family member of an EEA national until they have been issued either a:
• registration certificate, or
• residence card.
Could be. Was it issued when unmarried? (on basis of same sponsor)karamba123 wrote:Would that be a blue HO residence documentation? I have one issued on 03 August 2007, it says on it: Registration Certificate.Applying for permanent residence

Panic may be over then - if your card was issued as partner's dependent.karamba123 wrote:Yes, I were unmarried then, in fact we were both issued with the similar residence certificate ("UK residence documentation for a national of an EEA state"), we were obliged to apply for it after a year of uninterrupted working in UK. We had also both been issued with a registration card ("accession state worker registration scheme") which we had to apply within the first month of employment.
And that was exactly what happened. What a tube I am. For such a long time I have been thinking that I can always apply for PR 'using' my paartner/husband in case of any gaps in my employment (bringing up our children!). Cannot happen.If your card was issued to you (and I think it was actually) then you wil have to apply in your own right.
Yes that's my understanding of your case.karamba123 wrote:Right, I think I got it now... my Registration Certificate was not issued on the sponsor's basis, it was the continued 1 year uninterrupted work basis. So I cannot apply on the sponsor's basis, right?
My application is all prepared now and ready to send, however, I would like to know first what you/folks think.Its just your final period that's a shade of grey.
