applying on a visitor's visa

Can you apply for a family permit or something more permanent if you are an american in the UK on a visitor's visa and married to an EU national? If not do you have to do it from the US or can you do it from any other UK consulate or embassy? Thanks!!

You can apply on the EEA path as a visitor in the UK. Here's a recent thread on it (it is for Unmarried partners, however the core visitor application info is still relevant): http://talk.uk-yankee.com/index.php?topic=55327.0.

tytytyty weby !!! the ukba people told my wife she could only apply from the US...  it reminds me about the time when she asked the danish embassy in Bucharest about something and they seemed to have no clue about Schengen, they thought americans had 3 months in every european countries like maybe 30 years ago

UKBA call centre is notorious for giving out wrong information. If she entered as a visitor her status will continue until her application is decided.
