UTIAC Under the scheme set out in reg 8 (2) of the Immigration (European Economic Area) Regulations 2006, a person can succeed in establishing that he or she is an ‘extended family member’ in any one of four different ways, each of which requires proving a relevant connection both prior to arrival in the UK and in the UK:
i. prior dependency and present dependency
ii. prior membership of a household and present membership of a household
iii. prior dependency and present membership of a household;
iv. prior membership of a household and present dependency.
It is not necessary, therefore, to show prior and present connection in the same capacity: i.e. dependency- dependency or household membership-household membership ((i) or (ii) above). A person may also qualify if able to show (iii) or (iv).
