There is no requirement to be in work or to provide financial data (income/etc).

Basic Documents:
- Passport
- BRP
- English test
- LITUK test
- 2 Referee declarations
The application system will generate a checklist of requirements - documents are scanned/uploaded - you keep all originals.

Normally both English and LITUK tests are required.
Did he provide an English test for ILR? - he could rely on that. I don't believe a college test from 2011 would be valid anymore as such.
