You need to check if these applications can be made in the UK or outside the UK in your home country...

it will have to be a fresh application.

Your current status derives from a relationship to an EEA citizen. once thats no longer the case you will have to make a fresh application on the new status I believe. The 2 will be completely separate issues.
In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing.

Thanks for the reply Ronie.

As I am in UK since feb 2007 & I can get ILR after 10 years legally in UK, my question is wether can I Apply for anyother category from UK ? If I apply from my country, my previous 7 years would not be counted?

Kind Regards

You will normally be required to apply out-of-country if you wanted to switch from the EEA regulations to other categories, except in human right cases. Whilst you can switch from any other category in-country to the EEA regulations, you cannot do the same vice versa.

Thanks a lot Dalebutt.
If I apply under human rights, are there any chances in my favour although I am in UK since Feb 2007?

Much appreciated & Regards
