When I called to ask about it, they stated it was a must for me to have photo ID and the passport is all I have (other than my now expired US driving license.) so I opted to take care of it before I had to send in the EEA2.just as a sidenote...you don't necessarily need the passport for the National Insurance number, but it might help. They have a way to verify it directly with the home Office.
To be perfectly honest, it doesn't really matter if YOU have a job or not. You are allowed to stay as long as your spouse is an EU citizen exercising a treaty right in the UK. This can be from your spouse being in employment, self-employment, a student or self-sufficient. What is your wife's situation i regards to this? I found the following from this site.Anyone knows that in worst case scenario if I move to UK and i cannot find a job and my EEA family permit expires than what are my options ?
If he were to not apply for the residence card, it would not cause him to be out of status as he is still a spouse of an EU citizen exercizing treaty rights in the UK. Though it is technically not mandatory, it's still advisable to do so. It would be an arduous process for him to prove his continuing right to live and work here, and also makes it easier to come in and out of the UK. So at any time between entry into the UK and the expiration of the family permit, apply for EEA2. The letter makes it clear that they would still be able to seek employment while the application is pending.Ok, I'm obviously being obtuse. If my husband has an EEA Family Permit for 6 months, which expires in March does he not then need something else in his passport after the expiration of his EEA FP in March (if he leaves the country and returns)? My understanding of the process was that he comes in on an EEA FP, then applies for a residence card using EEA2 which is valid for 5 years.
