EEA self sufficient on non EEA family member's income
Posted: Sat Aug 09, 2014 4:52 pm
Dear all,
I am EEA national (Latvian) and my husband is non EAA. He just got an EEA Family Permit and we are moving to the UK. He will apply for 5 years Residency Card. He is going to be employed full time and I will not work. In this case:
1) Do I need to get Registration Certificate before he applies for Residency Card?
2) Can I be exercising treaty rights as "self-sufficient" if I have some small savings and we will have a joint bank account where his salary is being transferred every month?
3) Is there a minimum amount of income per month (for 2 of us) we need to meet to be "self-sufficient"?
4) Do we both need comprehensive Health Insurance?
5) If I stated that I am self sufficient, in case we have kids, I am not able to get child benefits?
Thanks in advance for your answers!!
