Thank you very much,

As far as I understand, you were extent to register, as you were student, so for the period you were student, for that period.

I am from Lithuania and I was a student 01/05/2003- 30/04/2004

As Lithuania was not a part of the EU until 1st May 2004, I am not sure if the period listed above can be considered for the purpose of acquiring PR. You can't have exercised treaty rights if you did not have any rights to exercise.

Besides, after 1st May 2004, if you had any period as a student, you would be required to have CSI or a non-UK EHIC card for that period to qualify.
