ILR Cohabitation documents

Post by lindajulian27 » Thu Sep 12, 2019 8:31 pm

Dear Moderators,

I am currently filling in the Set (LR) application form online to apply for ILR. Under documents to be provided, I have been asked to provide proof of relationship with my husband as well as correspondence addressed in both our names, or addressed individually at the same address, to cover the last two years.
My husband joined me in the UK last May as a dependant. So he doesn't have correspondence to cover two years in the UK. Is two years mandatory? I dont understand why I need cohabitation documents in the first place since I am the only one applying for ILR at present. They have also asked for his passport and brp which is quite perplexing.

Could you please clarify what needs to be done regarding the cohabitation documents.

Regards,
Linda

Checklist is not accurate. Cohab docs are not needed for LR.

Thank you. I thought the checklist was inaccurate as well. But how do I get around it? I will have to tick and confirm that all documents have been uploaded, right? If I am taking the super priority route, the person at sopra steria is also going to double check if all documents in checklist has been submitted. I’m afraid they might consider my application as incomplete if I don’t submit all the checklist documents without actually going through whether they are required or not.

Do you have any advice regarding this.

For sopra appointment only your passport is mandatory. Plus you can add a cover letter and explain the situation and upload with your documents.

Checklist generates on how you have answered your original questions in the form. Make sure you have answered your questions correctly so it is not generating an incorrect checklist. If it is still generating a checklist even after you have answered correctly, just add a cover letter.
