Yes they can. They need to demonstrate they are dependant on the EU citizen, though. As per [url="
https://assets.publishing.service.gov.u ... idance.pdf"]caseworker guidance[/url], page 60:
[quote][b]Child aged 21 or over[/b]
Where they are aged 21 or over, the applicant must be the direct descendant of the relevant EEA citizen (or qualifying British citizen) or of their spouse or civil partner, and this includes a grandchild or great-grandchild, and (unless the applicant was previously granted limited leave to enter or remain under Appendix EU, or its equivalent in the Islands, as a child under the age of 21) the applicant must be dependent on the relevant EEA citizen (or qualifying British citizen) or on that spouse or civil partner.
‘Dependent’ means that, as demonstrated by relevant financial, medical or other
documentary evidence:
• having regard to their financial and social conditions, or health, the applicant cannot, or for the relevant period could not, meet their essential living needs (in whole or in part) without the financial or other material support of the relevant EEA citizen (or qualifying British citizen) or of the spouse or civil partner
• such support is, or was, being provided to the applicant by the relevant EEA citizen (or qualifying British citizen) or by the spouse or civil partner
• there is no need to determine the reasons for that dependence or for the recourse to that support[/quote]

Respected Guru Kamoe,
Many Thanks- that's a relief to know children aged 21 and over can still apply for family permit until 30th June 2021 as long as my friend can provide evidence of his children being dependent on him. Also my friend came to UK last week.
Thanks again!
