Hello. My US wife will soon have a UK Passport because her father was born in the UK. I assume that she and I (US Citizen) will be able to work in the EU as a result of this. Is this a true assumption?

If so
1) Can I apply for jobs in the EU, while being in the US for now, and legitimately say that I am qualified to work there? (Then get any permits after we arrive)
2) Can I get a family permit from the US without living in the UK?

Thanks for your help!

 

Thanks, your answers are helpful.

4 choices where we are most likely to wind up are UK, Spain, Czech Rep. or Poland based on the type of work I do. I was hoping there might be a single rule for all EU countries.

 

Ah great. Thanks Triple H (HHH)
