You cannot apply for ILR but may still be able to apply for PR (under EU directives).
Moved topic to EU forum.

Are you still married? What does your husband do in the UK?

If he lived in accordance with the regs for five years (him working would be a good example) and you lived with him, you will have qualified for PR.

Can you demonstrate that he was working and that you lived in the UK at the same time as each other?

we have been married for just over 3 years, i have been working for 5 years, as was he since we got married. am I right to understand that after my 5 year EU resident permit, even if we are not married by then, I can apply for permanent resident status?

You need to read article 13 of directive 2004/38/EC and check if you meet the conditions. If having done so you still have questions, post back.

I am aware of case 267/83 Diatta. If you read my post, I never said that the OP needed to live under the same roof.

"Lived with" EU national means living in the member state at the same time as the EU national is living in accordance with the regulations. There are other presuppositions, but I'm not going to list them exhaustively.

Thanks for the clarification anyway.
