I am applying for ILR with my wife and 2 kids at Solihull PEO as a Tier 1 applicant.
The expectation on Cohabitation documents on the Set(O) form mentions that 'If you have a spouse or civil partner listed in section 2 of this application form who is applying at the same time as you, please provide documentary evidence of cohabitation since you were last granted leave (up to a maximum of two years). Evidence provided should cover the whole period and be in the form of official letters or documents, addressed to yourself and your spouse.'
My queries are as follows:
1) I was last granted leave as Tier 1 Migrant in March 2009. Am I right to interpret from the above that I can provide proof of cohabitation for upto 2 years anytime between March 2009 and current date?
2) I have proof of cohabitation from Dec 2011 to Dec 2010, but absolutely no documents to prove cohabitation between Dec 2010 and Dec 2009. Though, I do have cohabitation docs prior to Dec 2009. In a nutshell, I have proof of cohabitation for only 1 year out of the last 2 years, but have for 2 years out of the last 3 years. Is it alright if I provide documentation for the 1st year and 3rd year in the last 3 years? If we look at the above quote from the set(O) form, it appears to me that I can provide proof of upto 2 years anytime between my last granted leave (March 2009 & now). Am I right in assuming this?
Please advice if I should be be OK in the above situation or not. I am getting very nervous about my wife's application due to this cohabitation clause, even though my wife has been with me for the whole 5 years, and all her home office applications for leave to remain { [WP-Year1] + [WP-Year2] + [Tier2-Year3] + [Tier1-Year3] } were made as my dependant.
