can non Eu Family member of eu national sponsor once they get their pre settled status ?

Post by robin12345 » Fri Mar 15, 2019 11:43 am

Hi there,

My sister is non Eu family member of my wife who is Eu national so once we apply hers pre settled status can she being on that status sponsor her spouse who is also a non eu ?

it says on gov.uk site but its not clear if its not non eu family members aswell or only for eu nationals.

[b"]If you want to bring family members who are not EU, EEA or Swiss citizens to the UK
If you get settled or pre-settled status, your close family members can join you in the UK before 31 December 2020 - they’ll need to apply for the EU Settlement Scheme as your family member.

You’ll be able to bring close family members to the UK after 31 December 2020 if both of the following apply:

your relationship with them began before 31 December 2020
you are still in the relationship when they apply to join you
You’ll not be able to bring them here if your relationship with them began after 31 December 2020. They’ll be able to come here on a family visa".[/b]

On an EU national can sponsor a family member under the EEA/EU route.

If you mean your sister will get pre-settled status, then she cannot sponsor her husband. She will have to wait till she gets ILR through the settled status scheme and sponsor him through the UK immigration rules.
