	Don't sweat it too much, we applied as a family and still only me got refused, for no apparent reason, except my non EU nationality. You mentioned your wife is EU, can you obtain EU citizenship ?

Well, then no rules seem to exist, only the good will of a clerk

I am the wife; my husband obtained his EU nationality through his parents/grandparents. Not working for me.

	VinTA is either a family thing or an individual, hence in my opinion they are right in treating you as an individual. I know of so many cases where a person was here for many years on B , got married but couldn't apply under VinTA soon enough since the spouse wasn't eligible due to stay being less than 5 years. So re-iterating VinTA is either family or an individual. In your special case with EU spouse , VinTA family was never a choice unfortunately. Hence they treat you as single VinTA applicant and you must fulfil the eligibility irrespective of the fact that you are a member of household. Not being in University at the time of application also didn't favor you. Other option is to check your normal C permit eligibility (not VinTA) and take that approach. May be being a spouse of EU is already in your favor with regards to the timeline.

What do you mean by 'VinTA is either a family thing or an individual'?

One person in a married couple can apply for VinTa, without the spouse, before the spouse finishes 5 years in Switzerland. At least in Zurich.

	Can you kindly block me, rather than groaning at my almost-every post please? Common sense renders blocking someone who you don't like, rather than continuously groaning their posts, a far more effective use of time, and more community-spirited frankly. ------------------------------- OP I think it also makes sense to try once you're enrolled, and have spent a bit of time studying. You can then add a section to your application, mentioning how rewarding you're finding that experience, and what you're learning about your course and fellow students.

Its Tom. He groans everyone, don't take it personally. I've got 100% of my red reputation and probably half of my groans from him.

To be fair, he hands out likes too...
