For ILR Long Residence, you need proof of your ex spouse being a qualified person exercising treaty rights for the WHOLE period your were on the EEA route.

What visa did you come to the UK on in 2007?

I came here as a student.

Do i need to prove my ex spouse being a qualified person exercising treaty rights under EEA ? I am on Retain Rights. I can prove she was exercising treaty at time time of marriage and divorce but it's bit difficult to prove the whole 6 years.

Any suggestions please..

If you were on the EEA route for 6 years, you need to provide evidence of ex exercising treaty rights for the WHOLE 6 years. The Set(LR) form is very clear on this.

If your ex wife was exercising treaty rights for at least 5 continuous years during your marriage with you in the UK and you haven't been absent for over 2 consecutive years since that time, then you may apply for confirmation of PR.

Thanks for the reply,
Actually our divorce took more than a year to finalize. It took from end of 2014 -2016 because of the broken relationship and on and off touch i could not have all the paperworks for the PR. So i had to apply for ROR.

Any suggestion for Ilr or Pr application please?
