ILR: 10 years route tier4|eea2|tier2 query

Post by phelun2017 » Sun Apr 25, 2021 12:23 pm

Hello everyone, please if you know of any similar thread, please share here !!!

Arrived UK: Feb. 2012 with "Tier4 - Students visa"
By Jan. 2014, i switched to "EEA2 - Spousal visa" as a partner of an EU citizen.
- Lost contact temporarily with partner in 2016 due to marriage issues
- I have a few paper works showing our co-existence, but missing a lot

By Aug. 2018, i switched to "Tier2 - Work Visa"
- Currently holding this visa till date

Divorced with partner in AUG. 2019
----------

By counting i am due to apply for ILR on the 10yrs route by Feb 2022.
I am simply not sure what to expect, and wanted to do a little research before contacting any lawyer.

1. Should i even try to apply on the 10routes path ? Will my case be considered ?
2. I do not have alot of paper works of my partner between 2016 to mid 2017, how much effect will this have on my application ?
3. Any ideas of tips of what i could start doing now before hand ?
4. Any positive or negative effect of "brexit" in my case ?


Im sure this is not the most complicated situation out there :)
Any suggestions will be highly appreciated

You must prove your EEA partner exercised treaty rights under the EEA regulations in place back then and while married to you, otherwise your ILR will be refused. This means often means proving your ex worked or studied here. For people who have no contact with their ex this may pose a big problem as they must give you all the documents showing they were exercising treaty rights. Brexit is irrelevant to your circumstances.
