Many thanks.
There are multiple views about it.
The extreme view is that under EEA routes, there is no revenue requirement. In addition, as they are parents, they qualify as close family members, so the dependency is assumed. Even the EEA FM form is not compulsory. Following this view, you can apply by sending an EEA passport, a non-EEA passport and a post-it sticker.
While the approach above has some theoretical merits, it doesn't sound realistic to me. The EEA FM applications I have seem in front of me that worked out of the box without any questions from the Home Office were very comprehensive:
- Full financial situation of the EEA sponsor demonstrating ability to sponsor
- Extensive documentation of dependency and relationship
- Strong cover letter/representation for good measure
In your case, the EEA national is not working (is the EEA national exercising Treaty Rights at all?). If you are called to demonstrate dependency, you will be in weak position explaining that you are sharing the public funds with them already.
Beyond that: any time someone has the project to bring relatives, I always recommend seeing a financial adviser. Helping someone abroad, is not the same as having the same person under your responsibility in the UK. You need to think disposable income and affordability. An adviser can help you to realistically budgeting for that in order to analyse the feasibility with numbers not with emotions.
This point is very important as I have seen people struggling with maxed out credits cards and debts incurred by a cost of a dependent adult. The pressures arising from that can break families apart.
On a personal note, you seem to go through a difficult situation at the moment. I think the most important thing now is to go through this and see the light again with a limited damage to your health, your couple and your finance. Do you think you EEA wife would be fine living the next 5 years with your parents in the living room ? I am culturally from a place where 3 generations share a house and everybody finds normal. It's less socially accepted in Europe. So your wife might be happy to assist now but the day she has to cancel a trip or a mortgage project because there isn't enough money, the tension would be unbearable at home.
Good luck whatever you decide.
I was wondering that. She can't take UK benefits if she is not exercising treaty rights as a worker or has settled status.Zerubbabel wrote: ↑Tue Jun 09, 2020 8:15 pmIn your case, the EEA national is not working (is the EEA national exercising Treaty Rights at all?).
JB007 I have seen your posts in benefit section of the forum as well please allow me to say that you appear to have some sort of phycological complex about people claiming any benefits they may be able to claim.JB007 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 10, 2020 9:33 amI was wondering that.

Because of the pandemic and the high numbers claiming, the DWP had to draft in extra staff and were taking the benefit claims on face value. Very soon, they will have to check these claims to see who has been taking what they were not allowed/made a false claim.

It's nothing to do with where somebody is born, it's the benefit rules about who can claim.New on forum wrote: ↑Wed Jun 10, 2020 10:40 amJB007 I have seen your posts in benefit section of the forum as well please allow me to say that you appear to have some sort of phycological complex about people claiming any benefits they may be able to claim.JB007 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 10, 2020 9:33 amI was wondering that.

You are Loyal is more than king type of example who I guess somehow managed to naturalise as BC and now has a presumption that everybody who emigrates to uk does so solely for benefits.
Please don't make your advice unnecessarily complicated and discouraging.
Nobody here in this post asked you about how DWP will handle benefit claim but original question was something else.
And yes I am not a fan of using social security either but I will not judge anyone else.
I have seen white native Uk born people taking benefits from right left and top too.
You need to apply ASAP. In theory you can apply until 31/12/2020, but I never liked working too close to the deadlines. The sooner, the better.drdentist29 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 10, 2020 12:41 pmYes, she is exercising treaty Rights. So, do i have to apply before 31st December? And We won't be in any benefits from next month as once my dental clinic open again. But my wife she is pregnant and won't be able to work, so, does it affect when we apply, if she is not working.
Are these the reasons why you are upset about the government changes to the benefit system to make the UK less attractive?New on forum wrote: ↑Wed Jun 10, 2020 10:40 amJB007 I have seen your posts in benefit section of the forum as well please allow me to say that you appear to have some sort of phycological complex about people claiming any benefits they may be able to claim.

The OP is a skilled worker and his situation is different to yours.
My response could have been relevant to the OP, read the posts again.New on forum wrote: ↑Wed Jun 10, 2020 4:36 pmNo one including me here is upset about benefit rules and your response was irrelevant to whole topic of the post.
when did I or anyone else here complained about benefit rules.
Some migratns have a high sense of entitlement of what they think the UK should give them and the UK are addressing this problem. None of this is relevant to the OP as he is a highly skilled worker and he will keep his family.New on forum wrote: ↑Wed Jun 10, 2020 4:36 pmYou response here again proves what said in earlier post to you.
Let me re iterate I am geniunely very grateful for how I have been treated in this country.
I am trying to bring your attention to your deteriorating mental complex and pre assumption about fellow immigrants.

Your posts show that you have applied for the UK to give you things for free e.g. your post about your application for a fee waiver.

Upcoming changes to the welfare rules were announced in Parlaiment, with a list of EU countries that would now give more benefit money than the UK, in about 2015 I believe. Not sure how you missed it as although you have said in your posts that you were illegally in the UK then, you would have had access to the internet via the library at the very least.
