By my decision promulgated on 28 March 2017 (appended to this decision), I set aside the decision of the First-tier Tribunal ("FtT"). I hereby remake the decision of the FtT.
The respondent (hereinafter "the claimant") is a citizen of Thailand born on July 1972 who entered the UK in September 2010 as a Tier 2 General Migrant. In March 2013 she began living with a partner and on 29 January 2015 applied for leave to remain on the basis of her private and family life in the UK.
The factual background, which has changed in the intervening period since the Secretary of State refused the claimant's application, is not contentious. Having considered the written evidence as well as the oral evidence of the claimant and her husband at the hearing before me, I make the following findings of fact:
a) The claimant has been in the UK unlawfully since 2013, when her leave to remain as a Tier 2 General Migrant ceased.
b) In 2012 she met a Thai national who subsequently became a British citizen. They started living together in March 2013 and married on 19 April 2017.
