    You can absolutely apply for leave to remain visa if you have a child, I don't know how common it is for EEA nationals to do so.

    A "visa" is UK immigration rules. These can't have UK benefits for themselves or their British child for at least 5 years and they pay thousands for all their visas and the fees to use the NHS. This visa allows them to work.

    As an EEA citizen, you need to work or have retained worker rights (limited time) to have UK benefits. Did you look at the gov.uk link I gave in post 12? Read the retaining worker rights rules from pages 20 - 24?
