the application was flr(m) base on unmarried partner for 8yrs and with three british children and british husband

You'll need to be settled as you do not have leave as a refugee or humanitarian protection.

Your wife may qualify for a tuition fee loan (not a maintenance loan or grant) as the spouse of an eu national (which includes a British national) assuming you are legally married, but she would need to show he was ordinarily resident in the EEA/UK FLR the 3 year prior to the start of the course. Time spend here unlawfully would not count as ordinary residence so it depends on her status prior to being granted her residence permit

See category 2

Note that if she doesn't meet this requirement then she also won't qualify for home fee status.

But he also says 'British husband' hence why I said they'd need to be legally married. I'd assumed having looked at the op's other posts that they had subsequently married of were planning to. The ops instructions are unclear.
