Evidence for settled Status in UK

Hi,
I am due to apply for ILR this month and I have completed the online form but have not submitted yet.
Among the documents, I have to submit evidence of my husband's settled status. He was not born in UK. But he came here when he was 2 years old. He is now a British citizen and got a British passport.
My question is:
Can I use his British passport to show as evidence for his settled status in UK ?
He got British status through Naturalisation and unfortunately, his mum misplaced the naturalisation certificate and we cannot find it...
It costs another £250 to request for a duplicate certificate. So I was wanted to check if his UK passport is enough to prove his settled status in UK?
Would you be able to advise me please.
Many thanks,
Devina

Hello,
I need some advice with regards to this question on the online SET(M) form:
Have you been out of the UK since you started living here?
So I came in this country in 2006 but I left after finishing my studies in 2011 and then came back in 2012.
I got married in 2013 and have been on the spouse visa for 5 years. ( 2 X 2.5 years)
I am applying on the Family route SET(M) 5 years route.
And during those 5 years, I have been in and out of the UK for holidays and went back home Mauritius to visit family/ travel for work. But all of these trips had been less than 90 days in a 12-month period.
So my questions are as follows:
- Do I need to provide all the details of these trips during the last 5 years or only the last 2.5 years (as I have been requested to provide 6 letters/documents addressed to me and my partner at the same address to show that we have been living together during the past 2.5 years)
- What documents should I provide as proof for these trips? Can I print a copy of all my boarding passes when I travelled during the last 5 years or 2.5 years?
NOTE: I have already filled the online form and did not mention the trips for holidays as I thought they were all "less than 90 days outside the UK in the 12-month period".
But now, I am thinking if I should have mentioned them still...
Please advise. I got my appointment booked on Friday 25th Jan 2019 (Next Friday)....
Many thanks,
Devina

Absences should have been listed, all of them.

Nothing needs to be submitted other than passports.

This is NOT relevant to spouse settlement visas or Set M ILR. It relates to British Citizenship applications.

Thank you for you response and clarification.
But I am a bit worried now. I have already paid the online form and booked the appointment.
My travel details are not in the application. Is there a way I can include this information separately and bring it with me on the day of the appointment??
Please advise.
