Section6 in EEA2 form

Hello, everyone.

I may apply for the 5years resident card again, because I have lost it. (It's in this topic http://www.immigrationboards.com/eea-ro ... 58219.html)

Filling in the form EEA2 again, I'm not sure about the section 6 "YOUR EEA NATIONAL FAMILY MEMBER (EMPLOYMENT)".
My EEA husband obtained the certificate of permanent residence(EEA3) last year.
It's shown as "If your EEA national family member has already acquired permanent residence, please provide either their document certifying permanent residence (if they have one) or evidence of how they acquired permanent residence, for example evidence of exercising Treaty rights for a continuous period of 5 years prior to the date at which they acquired permanent residence."

Do I still need to fill in about what my husband currently does(employment/self-employment etc), or I don't need it because my husband completed exercising the treaty rights for 5years last year and got the certificate of PR?
In the form EEA4, the applicants can skip the section to fill in how the EEA family member has been exercising the treaty rights for continual 5years as long as the EEA family member has obtained the PR(EEA3). ("If your EEA national family member has a document certifying permanent
residence, please tick this box and go to section 8, otherwise please complete
section 7 below.").

But, it's not mentioned about it in the form EEA3, so I would like to hear some advices in this forum.

You can ignore the section completely. Just submit the PR card as evidence.

As you say that your husband now possesses a document confirming his acquisition of PR, how he exercises his treaty rights is no longer of concern to the UKBA. They would have assessed this before issuing him with a PR doc. and will have his record on their system.

Just provide the PR doc, tick (if applicable) that he has attained PR, provide whatever additional docs are required and send off.
