EEA Family Permit - Dependent Child need advise asap

Hi all,

Just a quick question. My husband will be applying for the EEA FP this coming week. Last year he applied for a tourist visa (before we got married) to go on holiday but he never used it. During that visa application they asked if he had a dependent child and he stated yes but I have now come to realise that maybe we made a mistake.

The child is 4 years old and lives with the mother ( they never married) but my husband did go to court to set the child support amount. Hence why he stated that he has a dependent child.

Is this correct??? I am worried as we now have to fill in this info for the EEA FP and we do not know what to say...yes he does have a dependent child because he pays child support or no he does not?? I also worry that if we state NO that they may think we are fooling them as he said yes for the UK Tourist Visa last year.

Advise please!! Thanks peeps

He was right then, to say yes, and will be right again now to say yes.

I see no reason why he wants to change to no
