An extended family member of EEA national or of his spouse

From 1st January 2021, extended family members can’t apply under the EU Settlement Scheme to join the EEA National sponsors unless they apply for a family permit or residence card by 31st December 2020. 



New rules for extended family members

If the extended family member can’t apply to the EU Settlement Scheme, they might be able to get a visa to live in the UK under the UK Immigration Rules as an Adult Dependent Relative:

  • They depend on the EEA National because of disability, illness or age, and
  • the relevant EEA National has settled status under the EU Settlement Scheme.

Unmarried partners

Long-term partners can apply for pre-settled or settled status under the EU Settlement Scheme if they’re the relevant EEA National like:

  • Unmarried partner and lived together for at least two years on 31st December 2020. They may also have a child together or
  • An unmarried partner and there is other evidence that they are in a long-term durable relationship. For example, they have a child together by 31st December 2020.

Evidence of dependency from a family member

An extended family member must provide evidence of their dependency from the EEA National family member or relationship to meet the above requirements to get their EEA family permit or limited leave to remain (pre-settled status).
