you need to apply for an EEA family permit from the British embassy in your country.
your application might go smoothly because you have kids together, so no more suspicions of shame marriage...and documents you need are stated in ukba website just google it.
your financial situation is irrelevant in this case,everything depends on your wife and her treaty rights exercing..... doesnt matter if your wife works part time or full time, you should be fine
i dont know if you can apply as unmarried partners, but applying while married is much more easier.

Only problem is I think they are not married yet and he doesn't birth certificate(as father) or marriage certificate..
Would you mind If i would ask they you guys didn't write your children birth certificate your name as father?

It might be helpful if you could advise which country you are from. Also are you legally married, since you refer to your wife, but then ask further on in your post about getting legally married?
Also when did you return to your home country, and how often do your wife and children visit you?

to the UK. In March the children were 7 and 10, now they're baby girls. Therein the 3 threads lays the truth...somewhere.Â

Frontier Mole wrote:EEA treaty rights can only be exercised when the required criteria are being met. If your Dutch wife is not presently working in the UK then she can not exercise her worker rights in regards EEA family permit.Â
However there are other ways - "self sufficient" under the treaty is one way, not very common and causes all sorts of hassle when trying to get EEA Family Permit.Â
See caseworker guidance - which is easier to understand than the law.

My advice is for your wife to get a job, any type of paid employment.
UK is not short of jobs, does not matter if it is a fast food joint, retail, catering any low end role just to get employment. Does not matter how particularly well paid it is either. It is the easiest way to exercise treaty right.
EEA application does not need a lawyer, good or not! Meet the criteria and fill in the paperwork, which is not difficult, supply the evidence and wait....& wait... 6 months is the legal max timescale for EEA residence to be issued.

in this case i think it will be hard to apply as unmarried partners, so, if you can just get married, that will make things much more easier.

it is enough to show that your wife is exercing her treaty rights, by providing her payslips,at least 3 last ones,letter from employer, work contract .. well, if you can show bank statement of the last 3 months that ll be perfect,there is no speciefied saving amount that u sould have inorder to apply,
read this for more details..

Perhaps you or your wife should go to the relevant registry to registar your name as the father and get a new birth certificate.
Getting married makes think a lot easier as others suggested but I believe you've still got a good chance because you got children together.
I wish you all the best.

I agree that the mother of your children should ideally go and amend the birth certificates to include the name of the father.
