Hi,

I would have been living in the UK for 5 years this Septemeber, I would like apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain.

My visa history:
- Sep 2007 to Jan 2009: Student visa
- Feb 2009 to Nov 2010: Post-study work category of Tier 1
- Nov 2010 to Nov 2015: Residence Card (Family member of an EEA national)

I understand I'm strictly not eligible for neither Form SET(O) nor Form EEA4.

Is there a way to go around it? Is there a form that fits my type of situation? Or I should get a lawyer involved?

You are not eligible for ILR in any sense or in any category. Currently, under your EEA family member status, you will be eligible for permanent residence in November 2015. That is dependant on your partner exercising unbroken residence and treaty rights throughout that entire period.

Thanks for your reply, it's kind of what I expected but was hoping otherwise. :S
