      Upper Tribunal Judge Gleeson made case management directions in this appeal on 15 April 2024 as follows:
The appellant is a male citizen of Albania, who appealed to the First-tier Tribunal against the Secretary of State's decision on 19 November 2021 to refuse to grant him settled status under the EU Settlement Scheme (EUSS) and Appendix EU of the Immigration Rules HC 395 (as amended). The First-tier Tribunal allowed the appeal. The First-tier Tribunal granted the Secretary of State permission to appeal to the Upper Tribunal.
It is common ground that the claimant and his partner did not marry until after the specified date of 11 p.m. on 31 December 2020. The date of the marriage was 1 March 2021 and the application for an EUSS permit was made on 18 May 2021.
It is my provisional view that the Secretary of State's grounds of appeal asserting an error of law by the First-tier Tribunal are bound to succeed.
      The appellant attended the hearing at Manchester with his partner. He was represented by Ms Alvarez who appeared remotely via CVP. Ms Newton, Senior Presenting Officer, appeared for the Secretary of State. Both representatives made submissions and I reserved my decision.
