EEA FM RC application refused - PLS HELP

Hi everyone,
I have just received a refusal for my mum's RC application stating that whilst we have provided evidences of dependency in the home country we failed to provide evidences of dependency in the UK.
We have provided 6 months of evidences of dependency in Russia (from July to December last year), then she entered the UK in January and we have submitted the application two weeks later.
Any thoughts on the reasonableness of this decision would be much appreciated! I was not aware of the rule that we have to submit UK evidences and we would need to have delayed the application to collect further evidences. Is the HO in their rights to demand such evidences from us?
We are considering all possible options: reconsideration (although not sure what we would write in this letter), appeal (although not sure on what grounds?) or resubmission. Please share your thoughts and experience.

Thank you very much for your help!
