query re eligibility for applying EEA Family Permit

[cardigun]

Hi
I am an Irish national living in the UK.
I want my brother(Indian national, living in India) to join in the UK via EEA Family Permit for extended family.

I lived in UK for 2 months (Jan and Feb 2020) in rented apartment for a job.
Then I came back to Dublin.
On 21 Oct, I moved to Belfast,UK and living here since then.

Am I eligible to apply for EEA Family Permit? I am asking because I have not lived continuously for 3 months in UK (EU exercising treaty rights clause) but total residence is 3 months. The periods are:
6 Jan - 3 Mar 2020
21 Oct - current

Please let me know at the earliest.

kind regards

Hello

Is your brother dependent on you?

As we are nearing the end of 2020, I don't recommend to anyone to apply under EEA EFM unless there is a strong situation already established.

Note that if your brother is refused, he will never be able to apply for a visitor visa to the UK again. So before applying, you need to make sure you have a strong case with reasonable chances of success.
