“once worked for 12 mths they gain EEA worker status as if a EEA18 (now includes cyprus and malta)?? is that correct? ”

also is the uninterrupted work ie no longer than 30 days in the rules? could not locate that in the circular?
[b:0efd86f594]Yes[/b:0efd86f594] you will find it in reg 2 (12)(c) of 2006 No 3317
i.e. “(c) a person shall be treated as having worked in the United Kingdom without interruption for a period of 12 months if he was legally working in the United Kingdom at the beginning and end of that period and any intervening periods in which he was not legally working in the United Kingdom do not, in total, exceed 30 days.”
