    Hungary does not really give a … about this directive. They are not willing to give an entry visa to my husband who is from Nigeria, however he has a valid passport and we have the marriage certificate. They just simply say that they cannot accept the belgian marriage certificate. They are asking for a resident permit, which he does not have yet. I took the neccessary steps…

      It does not matter if the non-eu family member is working. What is important is that the eu citizen is either working or is considered self sufficient

      You right to stay does not depend on you working or not. Of your spouse works that is all that matters.

      If you do not have one you should apply for a Residence Card
