I am guessing this should be okay but please check this link to be sure.

fwd079 that link is to a Northern Ireland website.

jo2015, please see and read the Good Character FAQ (click) you will see that Q23 is applicable to your question:
Q23 - wrote:I am claiming public funds will I be refused?

Claiming public funds that you are entitled to is fine and will not be grounds for refusal.

However, if you are claiming public funds which you are not entitled to this is likely to result in a refusal. Although, if you claimed public funds you were not entitled to, but there was no deliberate attempt to deceive the authorities, this should not result in a refusal.
Thus, no effect. However, do also consider another requirement, that you are settled, I am assuming you have permanent residence or ILR.

Do I need that 'permanent residence or ILR'?I was an au-pair but in 2005 I started working in nursery school and I applyed for WRS. But I did not apply again after changing job and was working there 10 months. So...Thats why I think is the best for me to apply as a persona married to a british citizen.
Big Thank you guys for help.

You still need ILR/PR status. Please see through Amber's provided link/post here.

Permanent residency refers to a person's visa status: the person is allowed to reside indefinitely within a country of which he or she is not a citizen. A person with such status is known as a permanent resident.
Never need Visa.

Is not working as a never need visa.
I don't understand.

New immigration regulations came into force on 30 April 2006. If you are a national of a country which is a member state of the EEA or Switzerland, or the family member of such a person, you will automatically have permanent residence status after exercising EEA free movement rights in the UK for any continuous period of 5 years ending on or after 30 April 2006, and therefore will not have to apply for indefinite leave to remain. But remember that, unless married to or the civil partner of a British citizen, you should normally have held permanent resident status for 12 months before applying for naturalisation. This means that you may need to wait until you have been in the United Kingdom for 6 years before you can apply

I didn't say "visa". I wrote "status" and by the looks of it you already have PR. Book NCS and apply.
