Applying PR Using multiple Qualifying Periods

[alijawad786]

Dear All

is there any chance my wife can apply her PR using Qualification Periods from 2007 to 2009 and from 2012 to 2015?

She had a break for 3 years due to bad health and she was on JSA. also she was suppose to be on WRS Scheme as well but never done it?

Any help appreciated

Thanks

It needs to be 5 years continuous as far as I understand.

Hey mate. There is not such thing like using multiple qualifying years. It needs to be solid 5 years for treaty rights in a row.

- no WRS time wont count at all for employed people.
- 3 years of Job seeking will be far too long for HO to accept.

In some scenarios HO accept some gaps due to health issues if you provide decent evidence, but her case seems to be far too difficult and little economic activity provided. She will need 5 years of activity as EU law requires. My advice would be rather to wait for new settled status for EU migrants which will be apparently just based on residence or if you are an EEA citizens you can sponsor her for her PR.

If she was economically more active between 2012-2015/17 she could use this period for her PR. What about years 2016-17
