Permanent residence and divorse/separation

[Cherrylady25]

Hello lovely people,
Im non-eu family member of eu citizen, have got a permanent resident card of a family member last year.
Now we have some problems with husband and he went home for a while. What should i do if we decide to apply for divorce? Do I need to inform home office and do another visa application or not? Will my status in UK be affected by divorse?
Thank you.

Can someone please help me and tell what to do?

As you have got a PR, so divorce will not affect you. You are no longer dependent.

I thought i still depend on him as it says permanent resident card of a family member...so if i will not be a family member anymore i can still live in uk?
Thank you

Yes, you are on your own now, you can apply for BC after holding PR status for one year. So don’t worry...

Thank you ever so much!
When i traveled abroad they used to ask me questions in airport boarder about my husband -where is he, what is he doing, if we are still married etc...i hope it will be ok as im travelling in a month, hope they will let me in if they ask where is my husband and I'll tell that we separated...
