Residence Card for Self-Sufficient person

Good Afternoon

Considering I have the following situation, I would like kindly to have a help:

When my wife´s Family Permit is about to expire (I´m the EU national), if I´m still a jobseeker, I understood the only way she can have a Residence Card is applying as Self Sufficient.

Due to the possible situation I have described above, I have some questions regarding the Residence Card application to her.


- Considering she is working in UK and we have some savings, can we still apply for her residence card ?
- Is there any amount of money we need to show? Is that necessary show money for the entire 5 year period?
- Applying as self-sufficient, do we both need to pay for Health Insurance?
- I have am considerable amount of money in a pension plan that I have in another country, that I can use anytime I want to, can we consider that for funding in self-sufficient application?
- Is it possible to extend the family permit ?
- After the my wife´s Family Permit has expired, if she cross the border and come back, she will can have a stamp in her passport at the border, like a another 6 months authorization to be in UK?

I hope someone could kindly help me with those questions!

Thanks!

Rafael

You need CSI to apply as self sufficient.

Dear Dan1988uk

Thanks for your reply!

When we apply as self sufficient for her RC, should we show a CSI contract for 5 years ?

I would like some help for a CSI question:

I´m the EU national applying for RC to my wife (non EU), as I´m not working and we will apply as self-sufficient.

Someone knows if we need to purchase a CSI 5 years contract or just 1 year is enough for the Home Office?
