Hi...
I have a doubt, if anyone can help me...
I am a Italian citzen and I am going to get married to my morrocan fiance in the end of this month... he has been living regurlaly in Italy for the last 5 years (we are both students), and we have been in a relationship for 4 years.
Now we want to go live and work in the UK.
He needs to learn english, so he enroled in a English course and he is applying for a student visa...
I would like to know if we could apply to the EEA family permit in UK, from the UK, and while he is on a studend visa, or we would have to come back to italy to apply for the EEA family permit??
and if the studend visa application would cause any problem for the EEA family permit application??
And if ever his student visa application is refused (he has all the requirementes and documentes, but we never know), in that case if the refusal would influence in the family permit application???
Thank you...

Its possible both ways.
You can either apply for an EEA Family Permit to move to UK ( which obviously gives him the right to study as well ) or you can move to UK on a student visa and then apply for his EEA resident card once in there.
If I were you, I would go for the EEA Family Permit route. Its simplified, quicker and free.
