answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/05/2016 answer text <p>European Economic Area (EEA) nationals have free movement rights in other Member States, but these rights are not unconditional. An EEA national does not gain the right of permanent residence merely by living in the UK; the right is only gained once they have exercised a Treaty right continuously for five years by working, being self-employed, self-sufficient or a student. EEA nationals who are not working or self-employed must have comprehensive sickness insurance and sufficient resources to support themselves and their families to avoid becoming a burden on the social assistance system.</p><p>EEA nationals with the right of permanent residence may apply for documentation confirming that right.
