Depending on your circumstances, you might be able to make your application a lot simpler.

Have you worked for 5 continuous years as an employee? If you are from A8 country (new joiners from 2004), have your registered with WRS?

If the answer is yes, then you have already obtained PR status after 5 years of employment and before starting your self-employment. In that case, your self-employment evidence (HMRC, invoices, bank statements) is not required. Just submit proof of 5 years of employment (5 P60s for example). You don't need to provide evidence of your activities now if you have proved you have PR already.

Also what your wife does (university letters etc) is not relevant.
If your child is not applying, his birth certificate is not required.

Yes i already have WRS and previous RP (from my previous marriage) they send it to me automaticlly when i come with my wife the first time to uk (as we applied for her papper)

I'll apply for my child as well with us (he born in uk)

Is it possible that we can put both applications EAA 2 + EEA 3 + all our documents on the same envellope to home office? Or we should send them seperatly?
Thanks:)

Yes, you can apply in the same envelope. You will need to pay £55 for each application. If the child is EEA citizen, I don't see any reason applying for a document for him. Save the £55. He doesn't need it.

As I said, don't send the self-employment evidence. It will just confuse the caseworker. Just the employment evidence. Make it simple.

Thank you for your answer, for my PR i agree with you that only my previous P60s will be fine as proof , but for my wife i should show that i still working , and at the moment from the begining of this year i was working for my company only. Does it means i don't need to show for her case i'm working till now as self employed?

No you don't. You either need to provide evidence of exercising treaty rights OR that you have PR status. If you have PR, you don't need to exercise treaty rights any more.

This is also stated in the application form (beginning of section 6/7):

If your EEA national family member has already acquired permanent residence, please provide either their document certifying permanent residence (if they have one) or evidence of how they acquired permanent residence, for example evidence of exercising Treaty rights for a continuous period of 5 years prior to the date at which they acquired permanent residence.

If you have worked for 5 years, you do have a PR status. What you don't have is a confirmation from the HO. PR status is obtained automatically. You don't need to apply for it. If you wish, you can apply for a confirmation of it using form EEA3.

The form clearly states - you can provide evidence of your PR status (for example 5 P60s). There is no need to show you are working at the moment.
