ILR application with lost old passport for a dependent

Hi All

I was on Tier 1 General Visa when I got married in 2014 and my wife came to UK on a dependent visa. It’s now been 5 years, so she is eligible for her ILR, and I became a British citizen in 2016.

However, unfortunately, her previous passport is missing, the one with an entry clearance on. I have read a few forums and people are suggesting to get the police report, SAR report and a letter from all the previous employers.

As she is mainly a dependent and not working anymore, I am not sure if I need to arrange any other documents, does anyone have an idea?
Also, when applying for a SAR report, would I need a Basic type?
And what’s required for filing a police report? How it’s done?

Any tips would be appreciated. :)

Thanks

UKVI already has the records on your wife.
SAR procedures are explained on GOV.UK website (Google search).
Contact the police to report the loss (Google search).
