(This one was completely garbled on their page. It
kept switching from talking about the applicant’s status to the sponsor’s
status which in many cases had no relevance and made no sense. Applying for
permanent residency is based on YOU having stayed in the UK for 5 years and
being a qualified person. Not about having a sponsor with qualified status – it
doesn’t work like that. I’ve therefore based my copy on the UK Gov’s official
website as the text on the source website was nonsensical. Plus it simply repeated
the same information that was explained twice in the previous page.)
Prior
to submitting your application for a Permanent Residence Document in the United
Kingdom, let Aristone Solicitors assess your eligibility and advise on the
available options. If you are an EEA national and can prove you have been
legally living and working in the United Kingdom for five consecutive years,
you may be entitled to apply for a Permanent Residence Document. Such status is
granted on the basis of the applicant having exercised their treaty rights and
obtained qualified person status in the UK, though may also be granted in
accordance with their sponsor (family member) in the UK having satisfied all
such requirements.
The
Requirements
There is currently no formal legal requirement to
apply for a Permanent Residence Document in the UK.
Individuals who have legally lived in the UK with qualified person status for a
minimum of five consecutive years will typically qualify for permanent
residence status automatically.
While
applying for a Permanent Residence Document is technically optional, it can be
a useful document to have if you;
Intend
to apply for British citizenship
Wish
to sponsor a partner or family member’s visa application
Please note that existing and future Permanent
Residence Documents issued will no longer be valid from January 1, 2021. Applications
must be submitted to
the EU Settlement Scheme to continue living in the UK after that
date.
Please note that different rules apply for obtaining Permanent
Residence Document for individuals based outside the EEA and Switzerland.
Who Can Apply?
Any EEA national in the United Kingdom can apply for a
Permanent Residence Document as soon as their
permanent residence status is confirmed. Once again, you will typically qualify
for permanent residence status upon spending at least five years in the UK as a
qualified person, under one of the five major categories:
Worker
Student
Self-Employed
Self-Sufficient
Jobseeker
Family Members
You may also choose to include members of your family
in your application, if they are also eligible for permanent residence status.
According to official immigration policy, close family members are defined as:
Spouses or civil partners
Children or grandchildren
Parents or grandparents
There is also the possibility of including extended
family members in an application, if they were members of your household prior
to moving to the United Kingdom or are dependent on your care. Examples of
extended family members include:
Unmarried partners
Brothers or sisters
Aunts or uncles
First cousins
Nephews or nieces
Family members or relatives of your spouse, civil partner or
unmarried partner
The Home Office may in some instances grant permanent
residence status without the requirement to spend a full five years living in
the UK as a qualified person. To discuss your requirements and the available
options in more detail, contact a member of the individual immigration team at
Aristone Solicitors today.
Permanent Incapacity
Permanent residence may also be granted where a
qualified person is unable to continue working due to an accident or illness –
aka ‘permanent incapacity’. The affected individual can apply immediately if
the incident is work-related and/or entitles them to a pension from a UK
institution. If these conditions do not apply, the individual can apply
following two years of continuous residency in the UK.
How to Apply
Your application for a Permanent
Residence Document can be completed online, though must be submitted along with
sufficient evidence to support your case. Here at Aristone Solicitors, we can
provide the expert advice you need to ensure your Permanent Residence
application is successful.
Whether
submitting a single application or you wish to include one or more family
members, we’ll ensure you understand every available option and make an
informed decision. Our bespoke legal services are tailored to meet all
requirements and budgets – call today to book your obligation-free consultation
with a member of our legal team.
