Not possible if you did not hold an EFM RC naming your partner/sponsor whilst unmarried. If no such EFM RC then the PR clock starts when you married sponsor assuming he was a qualified person from then onwards (and that any/all absences you have enjoyed have been within prescribed limits).

In essence, my question is: As a Non-EEA national, can I apply for PR after 2.5 years as un-married co-habiting family member of an E...

Hi there,

Wonder if anyone can help me on this? My husband and I came to the UK as students in 2009. He is a European and eligible to apply for PR. However, we didn't get married until last year. As for now, can I apply for PR too using the EEA4 form?

Thank you.

Thank you so much Dalebutt, if you have time, may I ask a few EEA2 question? I just took a look at the EEA2 form, it states that that there is no legal requirement for a non-EEA family to apply for a residence card to confirm their right of residence in the UK. I'm married to a EEA national and on a...
