Hello all

I have a question about the documents to submit to demonstrate proof of living in the UK for 5 years.

I am not sure what documents to use - can I use my council tax letters? Or my tenancy agreement(s)?

If you are an EEA National, you need to include letters from employers, educational establishments or other government departments, indicating your presence in the UK during the relevant 3- or 5-year period.

Bank statements or household bills are not suitable proof you have been living in the UK.

Is it better to include as many documents as possible - or to cover the 5 years with one document for each year/time-frame?

Council tax bills are fine.
The application needs a minimum of documents, no need to overload.

Council tax bills will cover one whole year each, it is a straightforward option. No need for extra stuff (I am an anxious type and wanted to provide more evidence, but it is not necessary).
