             By a decision dated 17 June 2023, First-tier Tribunal Judge Norris ("the judge") allowed an appeal brought by the appellant, a citizen of Ghana, against a decision of the Secretary of State dated 27 October 2021 to refuse her application for pre-settled status under the EU Settlement Scheme ("the EUSS"). The judge heard the appeal under the Immigration (Citizens' Rights Appeals) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020 ("the 2020 Regulations").
             The Secretary of State now appeals against the decision of the judge with the permission of First-tier Tribunal Judge Monaghan.
             For ease of reference, we will refer to the appellant before the First-tier Tribunal as "the appellant" in this decision.
             We informed the parties that the Secretary of State's appeal would be allowed, and that we would remake the decision by dismissing the appeal, with full written reasons to follow, which we now give.
             The appellant was born in 1971. Since 2013, she has been the primary carer for two British children. She has not been in contact with their father since at least 2011. She has held leave to remain under Appendix FM of the Immigration Rules in that capacity on a number of occasions. One such grant of leave was on 4 June 2019 until 11 December 2021. By that grant of leave, the Secretary of State accepted that it would not be reasonable to expect the appellant's British children to leave the UK.
