HO tend to play hard ball with their 2-year cohabitation rule but there is case law to challenge this view.

See thoughts on this matter, here:

... has confirmed that the Home Office’s European Casework Instruction in relation to durable relationships ‘should not be taken as necessarily correct in every particular’.

In YB (EEA reg 17(4) – proper approach) Ivory Coast [2008] UKAIT 00062 the Tribunal stated that ‘durable relationship’ is a Community law term and to seek to reduce it to the criteria contained within the Immigration Rules would run contrary to Community law.

Just fyi - in case of any future appeal.
