Citizenship PAYE query

Hello, my husband and I obtained ILR on 19 Jan 2019 and I'm in the process of applying for our citizenship and have a couple of queries:

1. I was a contractor from June 14 - Dec 16 through my own LTD company after which I became a permanent employee with the Bank I worked for. Do I need to produce SA302 or self assessments for that period or are my PAYE details for Dec 16 - present sufficient?

2. In terms of the end date of my employment during the time I was a contractor, do I put Dec 16 (I.e. At the time I became permanent)?

3. For previous immigration applications, how particular are they if you don't have the application reference numbers or the exact dates you applied? I was on a Tier 2 General spouse visa from Feb 14-Jan 19 so where known I've added the reference from my husband's application as he was the main applicant. Also, is the application reference what is written on the acknowledgement letter from the HO?

Thanks very much in advance!

Sufficient to provide the SA302/self-assessment details, that's to show NI paid outside of PAYE (specific to self-employed). Otherwise PAYE details not required, your passports are proof of residency.
2. In terms of the end date of my employment during the time I was a contractor, do I put Dec 16 (I.e. At the time I became permanent)?
Yes - makes sense.
3. For previous immigration applications, how particular are they if you don't have the application reference numbers or the exact dates you applied?

Give the dates and reference(s) you have - it's ok to provide estimated dates.
