Question:

Martina, aSpanish citizen, marriedNica, aGeorgian national in Tbilisi in 2003. Together theymoved to Spain in 2005. Their 7-year old son,Gio, who hasGeorgian nationality, has lived with his grandparents in Georgia. Due to high unemployment rate in Spain, Martina struggled to find a job and therefore decided to move to Sweden in 2011 in search of a better employment prospect. Although she had been selected for a number of interviews, she was not offered any of the positions she applied for. In desperation, Martina applied forsocial assistance applicable to those who are unsuccessful in seeking a job. The relevant authorities refused her application on the ground that it waspayable only to those who resided in Sweden for more than two years.

As she has much time to spare Martina decides to supportthe Green Brothers which is considered to be a radical organisation focusing on environment protection.The Swedish legislation does not ban the membership of this organisation. Martina has declared to the members of the Green Brothers that she will support only peaceful protests. Following a short period of time, Martina has received a letter from the authorities informing of her imminentdeportation due to the public security threats related to the membership of the Green Brothers.

The parents of Nica have been struggling financially. They could no longer support their grandchild and therefore decided to send him to join Martina in Sweden.Gio's application to join Martina was refused by the Swedish embassy in Georgia on the ground that he was a foreign national.

Nica meanwhile lawfully resided in Spain as Martina's spouse. In the beginning of 2012, he decides to join Martina in Sweden. Although he helda valid passport andthe original copy of the certificate of marriage to Martina, Nica was prevented from entering Sweden at the airport on the basis that he hadno valid visa. In addition, he was informed that the authorities suspected his marriage to Martina was a 'sham'.

Advise Martina and Nica on their rights under EU Law.
