You do not need to obtain documents confirming your right of residence in the UK if you are a family member of an EEA national but it makes it easier to prove your right to PR etc...

If you have the right to reside you are entitled to public funds and to my knowledge there is no rule that the EEA family member must be exercising treaty rights when in the UK under Singh.

there is infact case law that states that you have no obligation to be employed upon return.

your wife is habitually resident... and therefore your claim is for ALL THREE members of your family (you, wife and child - regardless of if the child is yours, or your the step father etc... the child is your family member.
