It depends which country of the UK you live in. UKCISA has a guide to who pays home fees in all four countries. See general link posted above for the rules in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.Robstin2014 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 15, 2019 12:34 pmShe is keen to continue post-graduate studies however we are wondering if she would have to pay the UK/EU fees or Overseas fees. She would be on the Spouse Visa before she starts these post-graduate studies.
As the OP is a British citizen and not an EU citizen, my understanding is that for home fees to apply, the spouse needs to hold ILR, ie settled status.sah10406 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 16, 2019 10:56 amIt depends which country of the UK you live in.

If it is England, she could potentially meet category 3: EU Nationals and Family:

Note the strict 3-year residence residence criteria (b) and, very importantly given that she was previously on a Tier 4 student visa, the "main purpose" rule (c). The Tier 4 visa does not itself rule her out, but it makes it very difficult to demonstrate that throughout the 3-year period full-time education was never her whole or main purpose.
Not so. Some categories do specify "non-UK EU national" but this one does not, and either way OP is indeed an EU national (for now anyway). UKCISA breaks down the eligibility:
Ahhh, thanks.sah10406 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 16, 2019 11:14 amNot so. Some categories do specify "non-UK EU national" but this one does not, and either way OP is indeed an EU national (for now anyway). UKCISA breaks down the eligibility:
on the first day of an academic year of your course, you must be:
an EU national; or
the relevant family member of a non-UK EU national, and that non-UK EU national is in the UK as a self sufficient person, student, or worker; or
the relevant family member of a UK national;
It may, but it depends. For what it depends on, see my previous reply above, from Wed Jan 16, 2019 10:56 am.Robstin2014 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 21, 2019 1:15 pmTo summarise, does it seem that UK/EU Fees may apply to my wife should she continue her studies?
