Thank you for your reply. Yes that is correct. After checking the EEA EFM guideline, I have found out my EU father can not sponsor my husband as an Extended family member, because my husband never lived with us in my home country or any other country. I met him in the UK and he has been livingh with us last 2 months. So, in order to sponsor him, I must rely on spouse visa route. But believe it or not, home office advisor said he can not rely on spouse visa either because I got my settled status as an EU family member. I personally do not think the advisor is correct. As a person with settled status (ILR) I should be able to sponsor my husband for spouse visa. When I challenged the advisor he got frustrated and asked me to contact independent solicitor.
Home Office advice lines are not to be trusted - they're probably worse than solicitors.kiron1212 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 23, 2020 1:50 pmBut believe it or not, home office advisor said he can not rely on spouse visa either because I got my settled status as an EU family member.
