Summary
A migrant worker who has been granted invalidity status by the Member State of his residence while he is not entitled to receive invalidity benefits, cannot be required by the Member State in which he completed his insurance periods to complete an additional one-year period of incapacity to work in order to be granted invalidity status there, and receive invalidity benefits, without receiving any benefits for incapacity to work during that period.

Question
Must Articles 45 and 48 TFEU be interpreted as precluding a situation, such as that at issue in the main proceedings, in which a worker who, after a one-year period of incapacity to work, is granted invalidity status by the competent institution of the Member State in which he resides without being entitled to invalidity benefits on the basis of the legislation of that Member State, is required, by the competent institution of the Member State in which he completed all his insurance periods, to complete an additional one-year period of incapacity to work in order to be granted invalidity status and entitlement to pro-rata invalidity benefits, without, however, receiving any invalidity benefits during that period.

Ruling
Articles 45 and 48 TFEU must be interpreted as precluding a situation, such as that at issue in the main proceedings, in which a worker who is unfit to work for one year and who has been granted invalidity status by the competent institution of the Member State of his residence, without being entitled to receive invalidity benefits on the basis of the law of that Member State, is required by the competent institution of the Member State in which he completed all his insurance periods to complete an additional one-year period of incapacity to work in order to be granted invalidity status and receive pro-rata invalidity benefits, without receiving any benefits for incapacity to work during that period.
