*URGENT: Settled-status EEA FM*

[_iprates]

Hi,
I am considering to apply for my pre settled-status as I am not in the UK for the period of 5 years.
The issue is:
I am a non-eea but I am married with a portuguese who is at the university in the UK, He's living in the UK for the period of 9 years (qualified for settled-status) but I am here for 2 years only.
I've got a stamp on my passport saying that I am admitted to the UK under the EEA regulations 2016 as I prove that I am married with a European who has the treaty rights in the UK.
I am not required to apply for the resident card to prove my rights in the UK so I didn't apply for it.

The Home Office website says:
You do not need to apply for a residence card to prove you can live in the UK unless you’re both:

from outside the European Economic Area (EEA) or Switzerland
an extended family member of someone from the EEA or Switzerland


The question is:
1. I hold a brazilian passport, will I be able to apply for the pre-settled status using my non eea passport?
2. Will i be able to use the app to do so as my spouse or i need to send my passport to the home office?
3. Shall i apply for the resident card, wait for the next 6 months and then apply for the pre-settled status?
4. Can I apply for both of us at the same application?
5. He's a student but has worked in the UK previously, do I need to have a health insurance to be eligible for the resident card/pre-settled status?

Thankyou.
