EEA/Non EEA

[christoff]

this happen to one of my friend.

He is eea national with permanent residency in the UK. He has registered a French Civil Partnership at the French Consulat in Lisbon with his non eea boyfriend (Brasilian) one month ago. His boyfriend has overstayed his visitor visa in Portugal for few months now. Could they both travel together to the uk and the non eea national be allowed to enter the uk under EEA rules. Knowing that french civil partnership is recognise in the uk and the french partner has permanent residency in the uk and in full time employment?

Or

do they need to apply for a EEA family permit from Lisbon?

this happen to one of my friend.

He is eea national with permanent residency in the UK.

How long has he lived in the U.K.

And which EEA state is he from?

[christoff]

He is from France and has lived in the UK for 12 years. He has got permanent residency in uk.

I have been told that if he enters the UK with his Brasilian partner Uk immigration will have to let his partner in under European law. They can't refuse him on the groiund that he has overstayed in Portugal because he is civil partner of a EEA who has permanent residency in the uk and so exercing treaty right.
Is that correct?
