I believe if you have lived in the UK (I hope you did legally) for at least 3 years, you would be eligible for domestic fees (and I believe you'd be able to take out a student loan). However, this will be subject to the following conditions:

•

You must have lived in the UK for 3 FULL years before the first day of your degree course.

•

You must have a permanent right to live in the UK.

So for your circumstances, you'll have to pay international fees as you do not have the permanent right to live in the UK.

The same is most likely applicable to Wales as it is classified as part of the UK.

Does your mother have permanent right to live in the UK? If she does then you may be able to get domestic fees as you are her dependent.

I moved the thread to the Ask SFE forum so that an official SFE/SLC rep can advise. :smile:
