Hi everybody,
My boyfriend (French) and I (Canadian) have been living together in Madrid,Spain for a little over a year. We are not married but we are a registered couple here.
My boyfriend lived in the UK before and can easliy get work in London since he is a specialized worker. We would like to move to the UK but only if I have chances of getting a work permit.

- Can I apply for Family Permit before we reach 2 year anniversary of living together, knowing that we will only enter the country once we reach the 2 years?

- Can I apply even if my boyfriend doesn't have a job yet? Knowing that he will get one very quickly

- How long does it take in general to received the permit from to moment you apply?

Any information will be much appreciated. Thank you!
