Non eu family member ( mother in law )

Hi,

Please somebody help me,

I am Spanish nationals and my wife Indian nationals. My mother in law ( wife mother ) have already 10 year visitor visa on the passport and she is here now.
Can I make a application as EU Settlement Scheme (settled and pre-settled status) before 30 June 2021 or she need family permit from india.

Thank you

When was her visitor visa issued? See this post: eea-route-applications/euss-for-mother- ... l#p1990607

Hello

It appears that your mother in law received a visa under Appendix V.

According to the guidance she cannot apply from the UK.

Thanks for the reply.

In 2016 I was not a sponsor to my mother in law. Sponsor was a British person other family member to my mother in law.

This makes me think that I might have misinterpreted this line:

a person granted leave under paragraphs 40-56Z, 75A-M or 82-87 of the rules in force before 24 April 2015 or Appendix V on or after 24 April 2015 or Appendix V: Visitor after 9am on 1 December 2020, unless:

I was reading this as meaning people on visitor's visas issued before 9am on 1 December 2020 are able to apply. But now that you say the above, I now read this as meaning, people on visitors visas issued before 24 April 2015 are able to apply.

There are two proposed final dates, but in reality it all means the visitor visa needs to be prior April 24 2015, the two dates are only there because the name of the appendix changed from "Appendix V" to 'Appendix V: Visitor". Does that make sense?

If so, you are correct and the OPs mother in law cannot apply. Other members who havre reported being successful on visitors' visas have likely had visitor visas issued before 2015.

Hi,

Mother in law has been in the uk two times on 10/2009 and 08/2013 six month family visit visa from india. I (Spanish) was not sponsor to her that time, other family person( British) has sponsor to her.
Now she have 10 years visitor visa from 2016 sponsor by British person family member.

Can she apply now eu family permit from india.

Thank you.

This is irrelevant.

Can she apply now eu family permit from india.

You have already received the answers to your question: No, she cannot, since she's on a visitor visa issued before 25th April 2015.

*In above post I meant: "No, she cannot, since she's on a visitor visa issued after 25th April 2015."

Thanks @Zerubbabel for spotting the error.

You are welcome @kamoe

And I don't know why mentions are no longer working for us.

Actually, I just spotted something that might change this answer. The restriction to apply on visitors visas only aplies to "Joining family members": people arriving in the UK after December 31st 2020.

So, when did your mother in law arrive in the UK?

If she arrived before December 31st 2020, she can apply directly.
If she arrived after December 31st 2020, she needs to apply for a EUSS FP from abroad.
