EEA Residence Card with Claiming Benefits

Hi

I am married to an EEA national. I came to UK in 2011 on EA family permit and got my RC in Sept 2011. Now I am going to extend my RC as i do not meet PR requirements.

My question is regarding Section 18 of EEA(FM). We have been receiving Child Benefit, CTC, WTC and DLA during last five years and the amount we have been receiving was different in different months. now I am completing the form and I don't understand how to provide this information (Average amount for each period or Every single payment that i received).

My second question: How will these benefits effect my application Child benefit and DLA for our child claimed by my wife and WTC and CTC are claimed jointly.

Thanks

Just FYI if you don't qualify for PR because sponsor hadn't been exercising treaty rights you don't qualify for an RC...

My sponsor is in full time employment and exercising treaty rights. I do not qualify for PR because of the breaks in my stay in the UK.
