Applied for Wrong Visa(?)

[oakhelm]

My husband is from Portugal and is an EU citizen, but when we were applying on the website we couldn't find EEA family permit. So we applied for spousal visa. Aside from the fact he isn't a UK citizen, we have all the correct paperwork explaining our relationship, his work, our accommodations.. Now I'm worried that I'm not going to get it because he's not a UK citizen.
Any thoughts?

You're right to be concerned. You don't qualify for a spouse visa under the UK Immigration Rules as your husband has Portuguese nationality. You should have applied for an EEA Family Permit. Unfortunately, unless you're very lucky you will lose your application fee. Has the payment been taken yet? If not, you could try blocking the payment which would mean the application wouldn't go through.

I know, but literally everywhere we looked in the drop down menus didn't have EEA family permit.. plus at the time we were like.. "We're married, so it should be good" then I dug around a bit and found out literally today...
And no, I sent everything off and it's all in Sheffield now. He doesn't want to admit that it's going to be rejected and I don't know what to do honestly.

My suggestion would still be to stop the payment if it hasn't gone through. Here's the correct application:

Did you pay the NHS surcharge?

[oakhelm]

Yes, everything has been paid for and shipped off.
Thank you.

You should have the NHS surcharge refunded, but doubtful about your application fee. It might be worthwhile to try to contact Sheffield.

I have to send in a visa application withdrawal that could take up to 10 business days to get back.
Good news is I can get it back and apply for the correct one.

Brilliant. Where are you at present? In the UK or applying from outside?

[oakhelm]

Outside

Outside

That's fine then. I was just concerned that you may be in the UK on a visa that was due to expire.

[oakhelm]

Oh no, I figured with my luck something like that would happen.
Thank you for your help, really.

Please post if you get stuck with anything.

Thanks.. It's just annoying because I feel like some of the sections are duplicated multiple times.

Well I do have a question, it may be stupid, but it's still something I'd rather get right.
Under the section for EEA National, it is asking many questions about his status, and all of the sudden it goes "What is your permanent address and contact details?" and doesn't ever ask for the EEA national's address, so I'm unsure if it's me or him that they're asking about. Especially considering they've asked for my address multiple times in other sections already.

Then further down it repeats questions
