That is a totally different scheme for EU nationals.

Hi,

Can you please help me with this, when i select category - apply as an adult coming to be cared for by a relative, on the same page it mention below point, so can i select EU settlement scheme as its free. Please help me with this.

If your family member has settled status you may be able to apply to the free EU Settlement Scheme or for a family permit.



Option selected - Apply as an adult coming to be cared for by a relative

You must be outside the UK to apply and need long-term care from a parent, grandchild, brother, sister, son or daughter who is living permanently in the UK.

One of the following must also apply to the relative:

* they’re a British or Irish citizen
* they’ve settled in the UK - for example, they have indefinite leave to remain, settled status or proof of permanent residence
* they’re from the EU, Switzerland, Norway, Iceland or Liechtenstein and have pre-settled status - they must have started living in the UK before 1 January 2021
* they have refugee status or humanitarian protection in the UK

If your family member has settled status you may be able to apply to the free EU Settlement Scheme or for a family permit.

Can my mother apply under eu settlement scheme or family permit??.

No, She can't.

For a British citizen to sponsor their the family member in this way, two specific events need to have occured;
a) the British citizen should have exercised treaty rights in an EEA member-state of which they are not a citizen, before 31st January 2020, AND
b) the family member that they want to sponsor lived with them in that EEA member-state while they exercised treaty rights.

If both conditions stated above are not met, the British citizen can't sponsor family members under the EU/EEA route.

If the British citizen has not exercised treaty rights in another EEA member-state while the family member lived with them there, then the only route available to sponsor a parent s the Adult Dependent Relative route that @CULLINAN has linked to above.

Be aware that this route has a very high rate of refusal (78% after appeals; 94% before appeals) and refusal would also close the doors to any future visit visa applications.
