Timeline: May 2015 - relationship began (unmarried) September 2015 - partner moves to the UK on a tier 4 student visa; I join shortly after September 2016 - started living together (relevant for relationship proof standpoint) October 2020 - partner gets a EU family residence card/permit (can’t reme...

Hi, I’ve done two phone calls this morning to the resolution centre and heard two completely different opinions from them. I am an EU national (settled); my (currently) wife is non-EU (pre-settled).

In the past 2 years she did quite a number of trips, mostly 1-2 weeks, but during the summer she usually travels for 1-2 months. Either way, we already submitted the application with chat logs for ALL absences (to be on the safe side), but the question remains if we should follow-up with the same l...

Sorry, I should have mentioned - we live together for more than 4 years with all the relevant responsibilities (except having a child). The chat logs I am asking about relate to times when we were apart (my GF had a number of trips alone to see her family) In that case looks like you are eligible. ...
