it means you need to submit your passport or other documentation to prove you were in the UK during that time.

Usually a passport with an entry stamp showing the date when you arrived in the UK is enough. sometimes however for one reason or another you may not have that particular passport or you didnt get your passport stamped you may need to supply letters from work or government departments to support your claim that were physically present
