...having Pre-Settled or Settled Status is not the same as having exercised treaty rights.

There have been examples in this forum of people seeing EEA applications refused because they assumed having Pre-Settled Status meant being in exercise of traty rights, when that is not the case.

I know the difference between a qualified person (EEA regulations) and pre-settled (EU/UK regulations).

I was referring to a case when EU national was last minute migrant in late 2020.
Those who arrived in the UK in Nov/Dec (like myself) could not exercise treaty rights due to the 3-month initial period of residence but they had to arrive before 31/12 in order to secure pre-settled status.

An EU national who didn't set foot in the UK in the last months of 2020 couldn't sponsor non-EEA partner in 2021. Having secured EU pre-settled automatically means EU national WAS in the UK before Brexit.

A question remains what if such EU national left the UK and will want to accompany an unmarried partner later this year ? Is the EEA FP to acc route still open or only to join ??

BTW...
Sorry for stealing somebody's else post.
