ABOUT EEA4 FORM

[kashyme]

Hi,
I am a family member of a German national living in UK since August 2004. I entered Uk on EEA family permit and was later given EEA family member residence permit for 5 years. During this whole period me and my wife both are working without any interruption . My wife was initially employed then became self employed . I remained full time self employed throughout this period. Next year we will apply for permanent residence. While looking at the form EEA4 it asks for my wife`s employment and self employment details not mine but the fact is that my wife`s income was not more than 5000 per annum in any of the previous years as she was working part time. In fact I was working full time and was earning the amount around 13000 -15000 a year average . If we mention only my wife`s income in that EEA4 form will that be ok or I have to show my earnings as well because my wife`s income was not as much to show home office
that we were financially stable . Kindly advise me where my application will stand when we will apply. I am a bit confused with this. I understand it is too early to ask any question as we will apply in August 2009 but I just want to make sure about every thing.

I hope to get your kind attention in this regard.
Thanks

Your wife can work part time with no problem. Take a look at some of the material on Directive 2004/38/EC for more information. You can also be working, though that is not required.
