What is the position of an EU national not resident here who has a non EU wife. Is the non EU wife restricted to three months short stay each year on a schengen visa or can they stay up to almost six months. The same as the EU national spouse? Are long stay schengen visas easy to get for family members? Thanks for anyone with any experience/advice

The wife (or husband) of an eu citizen is entitled to live and work in any EU country her (or his) partner is resident in. You need to get what is called an EU family permit, but it should be just a formality. Initially it's for 1 year, but renewable thereafter. If you're talking about going to any eu country on holiday, things may be slightly different, and I'm not sure what the answer is.
