For the Appellant: Miss S Heybrook, Counsel, instructed by Morgan Mark Solicitors
This is an appeal by the Appellant against a decision of First-tier Tribunal Judge Abebrese (hereafter, the judge), promulgated on 26 March 2015, in which he dismissed the Appellant's appeal against the Respondent's decision of 19 December 2013, refusing to issue a residence card as the extended family member of an EEA national under the Immigration (European Economic Area) Regulations 2006 (hereafter, the Regulations).
The EEA national in question was and is a Portuguese citizen. He is the Appellant's uncle (hereafter, the sponsor).
At paragraph 14 the judge employed the same reasoning to reject the evidence of the other witnesses, and in addition stated that it was not apparently credible that the Appellant's own parents had not been able to provide for him whilst he was in Pakistan. The judge did accept that the Appellant was presently dependent upon the sponsor.
In light of the above, the judge dismissed the appeal under the Regulations. He did go on to consider the claim under Article 8 but in light of more recent case-law on this issue that is not a relevant matter before me now.
