Which non-member-country family members can accompany or join, and what broad rights do they receive?
Family members who are neither British nor EEA citizens are subject, correspondingly, to the Immigration Act chapter 13 conditions for family members who are not EEA citizens. If the UK national is employed, self-employed or has sufficient funds, eligible relatives are: spouse or registered partner; cohabitant; an engaged partner planning to marry; children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren under 21, or over 21 if already supported; supported parents, grandparents and great-grandparents; foster children under 18; full siblings under 18 without caregivers; a family member in need of care with serious health problems; and a sufficiently supported family member. If the UK national is a student, only a spouse or registered partner, a cohabitant, and children under 21 qualify. The official source does not state the broad rights, such as work, that these family members receive.
