self sufficient eea

[asusblack1]

How much is needed to prove self sufficient criteria?
My wife is french national. I have 5 year permit non eea citizen from pakistain

She has been out of employment after I recieved my 5 year permit.. but by December 2016, she will have part time job in my cousin company.

My permit experies in 2020.

What is the best thing for me to do?

We are financially very strong,, I mean I can have £ 20,000 in my wife account in 2019... .

We only taking child benefit. No other benefit. At all

I am very worried she has been not exercising her treaty rights since may 2015 until now

Plz advise

For starters, self-sufficiency requires Comprehensive Sickness Insurance, essentially private health insurance for the EEA citizen and any family members dependent on him/her.

So, if your wife did not have CSI for the entire period for which she claims self-sufficiency, her PR clock (and yours) will have stopped.

Ok. Any other option

Ok. Any other option

If sponsor is not a qualified person then neither she nor you have much right to remain and reside in UK at the moment.
With all the wild talk of Brexit you may wish to address that asap.

If spouse/sponsor starts work later in year then your PR clock (for her and for you) will start then.
In the old days that would mean work 5 years and PR would be acquired.
Ofcourse its now unlikely that anyone starting from zero (as you are) has got 5 years to acquire PR - due to Brexit in a few years time.
