not sure which route if any

Thanks. I was told Surinder Singh is only for non EEA spouses, and stay abroad should have happened very recently - ours was over 20 years ago. Maybe that's wrong?

Eind is Netherland's national.
I'd still say that post by vinny is your best bet so personally I'd now follow that. Other than that I'd suggest if you are still unsatisfied then please seek professional advice. Good luck.

But the partner of Eind wasn't an EU citizen as meringue is. I think that's what meringue is talking about?

Perhaps, read the quote by vinny (below) yourself and see please, anyway personally I think OP has enough answers now to make up their mind.

I think that Surinder Singh (and Eind) may help you obtain confirmation of PR as a family member.
