Any documents list for the EEA Family Permit application, or any immigration procedure for that matter, can never be said to be complete. The documents list for EEA Family Permit supporting documents must always have room for additional documents considering potential complications in the case. The above list can be looked upon as a guide of the categories of EEA Family Permit supporting documents. But in order to pick what documents would be best suited for which evidence, we would have to know more about your background and situation.
