Hi all,
I'm French and already had my EU Settled Status.
My non-EU Australian partner just got her pre-settled status. Our relationship is based on a French Civil Partnership (PACS) which is recognised as a Mixed Sex Civil Partnership in the UK.
Long story short, it was a mess and the uk immigration services really undelivered at many steps of the process, but we got there in the end, in great part thanks to our local MP.
Application : 13/02/2020
Biometrics : 13/02/2020
CoA : 15/02/2020
Contact Local MP : 23/06/2020
Negative Decision ! : 07/07/2020 Case worker mistake triggering a Refusal of EU Pre-Settled Status
Application for Administrative Review : 08/07/2020
Positive Decision (Pre-Settled Status Granted) : 03/08/2020
Complain for BRC not received : 18/08/2020
BRC successfully received : 04/09/2020 It took 2 attempts and several call to TNT before we managed to get it delivered properly - terrible delivery service
If you want to read more information about my case, I've written a lot in this thread (page 2) :

Hope this helps and thanks so much for all the help on this forum, it helped so much !!
Best of luck to all!
