Eu settlement scheme family permit for spouse/partner

If your European spouse/partner in UK has settled or pre-settled status under eu settlement scheme then for sure you should apply for EU SETTLEMENT SCHEME FAMILY PERMIT. If your spouse/partner doesn't have settled or pre-settled status in UK then obviously you should apply for EEA FAMILY PERMIT.
Hi all,

What I understood by reading about both family permits is that if you apply for eu settlement scheme family permit its much easier than to apply for EEA FAMILY PERMIT.
My understanding after reading the difference between both permits is that when you apply for eea family permit you have to prove that your spouse in uk is qualified person ( working, exercising eu treaty rights) and if you apply for eu settlement scheme family permit you just have to be in UK simply doesn't matter if you are working or not.
Anyone who applied for eu settlement scheme family permit (for spouse/partner) please share his/her timeline and submitted supporting documents listlist.this can be helpful for this forum members.
Thank you.

Hi everyone,
I am planning to apply eu settlement scheme family permit for my non-eu wife.
I haven't read any timeline/experience about eu settlement scheme family permit under other topics, so I thought to open a new topic where people can share their experiences/timelines about eu settlement scheme family permit applications.lets just share our experiences about eu settlement scheme family permit.

Thank you

Hi everyone,
Does anyone knows if I apply eu settlement scheme family permit for my wife still I have to prove that I am working ( exercising eu treaty rights).
As I read that people who apply for EEA FAMILY PERMIT need to be qualified person, on other hand if you apply for eu settlement scheme family permit there is no question about job/work of sponsor (eu citizen) in UK.

Thank you.
