Do try to appeal. If the marriage was recognized in Romania, etc ., then your position may be stronger. Try to find out. Get evidence from Romania. Moreover, the NTL endorsement had prevented you from making an in-time EEA residence card application under the EEA regulations . Hopefully, a judge may...
If you didn’t receive the refusal decision until you recently called them, then you could try appealing anyway, explaining the circumstances. Let a judge decide whether or not to accept your appeal.

If you were a spouse (via marriage) of a British citizen at before your initial entry in 2016, then you were a family member of a qualifying British citizen as a spouse and not as a durable partner. Did you also enclose your marriage certificate with the applications? When and how long were your abs...
CHI 3.2. The applicant’s parents must each be either applying at the same time as the applicant or have permission to be in the UK (other than as a Visitor) unless: (a) the parent applying for or with entry clearance or permission to stay is the sole surviving parent or has sole responsibility for ...
NTL just confirms Indefinite Leave. It doesn’t confer anything. Therefore, it’s not equivalent to Indefinite Leave to Enter or Remain. If you didn’t have ILE nor ILR, then it was endorsed in error. Then it’s unlikely that you may benefit from it. It may be more helpful if you explained your backgrou...

I believe the father’s ‘consent’ letter demonstrated parents’ joint responsibility rather than mother’s sole responsibility. Hence, it may have undermined the mother’s claim to sole responsibility. A person with sole responsibility would not have needed such a letter from anyone else.
Why would a person with sole responsibility require anyone else’s consent? The Sole Responsibility test difficult as i read here. Do you think sole responsibility is enough? Father was away from child life (11 Years)? A letter of consent is evidence of the sender giving permission to the receiver r...
Tier 2 partners are different from spouse visa holders under Appendix FM. The qualifying period may start from when the initial Tier 2 partner’s entry clearance was issued.
Unfortunately, cannot include dependants in SET(LR) applications. In child’s SET(F) application, request them to wait until mother’s ILR application is decided. If mother’s ILR application fails, then child’s ILR application may also fail.
The start of your 5-year qualifying period was when they granted the initial FLR(M) on 23 May 2019. Safe to apply for SET(M) between 21 April 2024 and before expiry of leave.
Thanks vinny. My child already has a British passport so its not the case. Although, I got the point that Subject Access Request might be a valid option in these cases but will involve a lot of headache. If the British passport got stolen or lost, then they may treat a subsequent application as a f...
