EU family member in the UK for 5 years

[CloudyNow]

I've been in the UK for longer than 5 years, but I only got married to an EU citizen last week. Will I get settled status?

Was this not already answered in your previous topic?? The answer doesn't change.

What if I prove that our relationship was serious before the marriage as well? He was added to my tenancy agreement in October 2018 (he practically moved into my place even before that but we can't really prove that). Can't I gain at least 1 year by proving our marriage-like relationship started before the wedding? We also opened a joint account and get bills in both names.

Nope.

The only time that counts is time spent legally as family member of a EU national, which can only be achieved by effectively living in the UK while either:

1) Being legally married to a EU national
2) Having a EEA Family Permit or a EEA Residence Card.

I am assuming that during the time you lived together you had a Tier 2 visa, which is neither of the above.
