As i am in the process of an appeal my status is classified as a student. This is the visa that i was last given to remain in the UK.Wanderer wrote:What is your visa status in the UK now?

1. Why did you apply for an extension under compassionate grounds? What was the reason (if you don't mind sharing with us)?
2.Is your partner already a Greek citizen or is she applying for Greek citizenship through ancestry?
The difficulty is not in applying for an unmarried partner's visa. Generally you can still apply for a UMP visa even if one or both partners are still legally married. You would need to proove that the marriage/s has (have) permanently broken down. I cannot see why you two did not apply for the UMP visa and instead went for another visa. She is a British citizen so you qualify, and from what I've read you have been living together for at least two years, correct?
The aspect of treaty rights...this is interesting but it doesn't affect your rights to apply for the unmarried partner's visa and I don't see why you should be fighting the ruling based on her Greek treaty rights.
I might be missing something here, so please let me know as this is what I can understand from your post.
Thanks Victoria! I have to submit an application for a hearing at the administrative court.VictoriaS wrote:The IAS have misadvised you, which is unfortunate.
Why not just make a fresh EEA application now? It's free, and will give you the right to work while you are waiting for the decision.
