How exactly are you guys related?

Anyways regardless, just know that you must also be financially dependent on the EU relative for your survival. You can see it at article 3b of the directives.

And more importantly, the directive doesn't gives you immigration right in the country of his citizenship, but only if he moves and lives elsewhere in another EU country.

For example, if you marry a Chinese woman, it's Nigerian immigration law that will grant her residence to live with her husband in Nigeria. But if you live in Ghana for example, then it's ecowas law that will grant the Chinese woman right to live in Ghana with you.

It's exactly how it works with the family directive. If you read it, they state it there clearly. The directive does not interfere with national immigration policies, but only if the EU citizens lives in another EU country.

So if your uncle lives in let's say the Netherlands, and he has been sending you money every month for at least six months, then you can be considered a dependant and can join him as a family member.

You get?

Thanks for the wonderful explanation, I plz what are the directive of getting CROATIA work permit or any other EU countries?
