Which country are you applying for the durable relationship in?

[Bella123]

Here in the Uk

You have no automatic rights as the unmarried partner of an EU citizen. You will only have legal status (if you currently have no visa) once your RC is issued.

HO would expect to see evidence for the last 2 years of living together in a relationship akin to marriage, which joint commitments etc.

What is your UK immigration history?

Hi thank you for the fast response the situation is the non eu is overstayer me I’m eu November making 5 years in the country.
We do life together from 2+ years we have rent agreement to slow as evidence plus photographs and friends who can confirm we are in genuine relationship .
We consider marriage but don’t want to do it only for the papers it’s doesn’t feel right and it’s too soon some
how . That’s why we decided to go for extended family member as of durable partner.

Section 5: Durable relationship (unmarried or same-sex
partner of the EEA national)
Proof that you’re in a durable relationship with the relevant EEA national
You should send at least 6 items of correspondence addressed to you and your partner at the
same address as evidence that you have been living together for at least two years, or since you
were last issued with a registration certificate or residence card in this category (if applicable).
The items of correspondence should be addressed to you jointly or in both your names. Examples
of acceptable items are listed below. The documents provided must be originals. Photocopies are
not acceptable.
The dates of the items of correspondence should be spread evenly over the whole 2 years. They
should be from at least 3 different sources. If you do not have enough items in your joint names,
you may also provide items addressed to each of you individually if they show the same address
for both of you.
For example – if you have 4 items of correspondence in joint names for the same address, you
would need to submit 2 items addressed to each partner at that address (8 items in total).
If you and your partner have no bills or correspondence in joint names, you will need to submit 12
items (6 each) of correspondence, showing that you live together at the same address.
If you and your partner lived with relatives or friends for some or all of the 2-year period, please
provide a letter from the relative(s) and/or friend(s) confirming this.
If you did not live together for any part of the 2-year period, tell us the reasons for this and whether
you stayed in contact with each other during this time, and provide any relevant supporting
evidence.
