As Romania and Bulgaria joined the EU on 1 January 2007, it will soon be possible for nationals of those countries to apply for UK permanent residence based on 5 years living in the UK.
Mistakenly, some applicants have applied for UK permanent residence because they were living and working in the UK in some other capacity prior to January 2007, to accrue their 5 years. While such applicants may be able to apply under some other category of UK immigration, permanent residence based on EEA law is only possible after Jan 2012.
This has been confirmed by the UK Border Agency. There are many advantages to applying for permanent residence under EEA law. For more information on permanent residence under EEA law, then please contact us through our website
