Hi,

I'm about to apply for PR as an EEA citizen as someone who is exercising treaty rights (so I'm the applicant and the relevant person), in the same application with my wife as an EEA family member. I'm a bit confused about this joint application when it comes to Secion 16 (Public funds): I never claimed benefits myself, but she was getting Contribution Based Jobseeker's Allowance for a period and we're getting Child Benefit, I think that's on her name, but not sure, we can't find any document for that.

Does somebody know if I need to indicate her benefits under section 16? Normally wherever the family member's data is needed they use a phrase like "or anyone included in this application..." but in this section it only says "you or your sponsor".

Thanks

Found the documents in the meantime, so I'll just enclose them just to be sure. Although Jobcentre had misspelled my wife name and put MISS instead of MRS I hope that's not going to confuse HO if I'm including various documents proving our relationship, or will it?

Mea culpa, Contribution-Based JSA is not mentioned on the form, as a state benefit, only the income-based one, so we don't even need to include this document. The first question still unanswered though, if we need to enlist benefit received by the non-relevant person in the PR application.
