You qualify if you had permission to stay in the UK in any immigration category, or a combination of different immigration categories, and you have been in the UK legally for 10 years without gaps

You need to demonstrate for the time spent as EEA family member that your partner was exercising treaty rights. Why was your permanent residence denied ?

Thank you both. I was refused because late 2013 he was not in the UK due to a traffic accident conviction in his home town.

This suggests you cannot prove he was exercising treaty rights at that time hence making it impossible for you to qualify under the long residence. Furthermore, pursuing the EEA refusal in court would have not engaged section 3C. I suspect you also did not have continuous residence due to that

Thank you for your clarification.
