10 years PR - Reasons for wanting to stay in the UK

Hello, beginner here in forum so not sure if my question has been posted before.

I am filling the 10 years track for PR, nearly the end of the form, it asks: Do you have any other reasons for wanting to stay in the UK? I think I should say yes because at the beginning it does not allow me to put any reason.
I have married and our child born in the UK, he is now in year 3, my wife is working at an University, I have a permanent job as well. Going to state all of these but wondering whether or not I should state that we have bought a house as well? (1 year ago). Is that good or not good mentioning the house? Is there anyone with successful experience on this?

Thank you very much!

Yes you can give all these reasons truthfully which won't have any impact on the application provided the entire core criteria have been met.

Thank you very much Seagul.

One of my friend tried to apply for his visa to return to the UK (not as my case now), but one of the reason in his refusal letter was that because he stated he had a house, and the Home Office said he nay stay in the UK even after his visa expires.

Don't mind him as you are proceeding to settlement from inside the UK.

10 years PR - Correspondence addressed with Spouse for the last 2 years

Hello all,

I hope my question is not dublicate in this site :)

I am going to submit my PR (10 years route). After filling out the online form, one of the checklist's questions is:
Evidence you have to prove the relationship with Mrs LB (my wife) (for example marriage certificates), and correspondence addressed either to you jointly, or in both of your names, or addressed individually to you at the same address, to cover the last two years.

I have a marriage certificate, but I am wondering if I have to provide letters (from bank/council) etc to cover for the whole last 2 years (for example council tax from date... to date... that cover 2 years) or just some letters during the last 2 years?

Hope to hear from someone with the same situation or have experience on this.

Thank you very much!

Cohabitation evidences won't be needed which are appearing in the generic checklist.
