I was jobseeker before ceasing activity (worked for 5 years)

Post by Paulusheart » Tue Feb 21, 2017 2:24 pm

Hello to everybody. It is my first post on this board.
I am preparing application for permanent residence card.
I was working 5 years and 3 months from 2005 till 2011. Then was made redundant because of cuts.
I was registered with job centre till 2015 (4 years) I was actively looking for work.
On 2015 I became permanently incapacitated.
In the form( section 7) they ask what I was doing 'immediately' before ceasing activity.
From their guide and description it seems they expect me to work or to be self employed immediately before ceasing activity. Is it wrong that I was job-seeker for long 4 years before that.
Will my application be unsuccessful?
Please help

Were you registered with WRS between your arrival in 2005 and May 2011?

Are your wife and son British? If not, what is their immigration status?

Yes I was registered with WRS. I have all certificates and registration card for this period. I was working full time. I have all p45s p60s.
My wife joined me in 2006.She is Polish. She was self employed for only 1 year from that time. All documents and benefits were always in my name. My son was born 2008 in Belfast. He has disability and my wife is a carer from 2014.
