SET (LR) documents query

Hello,
I have completed my SET (LR) application and is asking for documents in mine and my husband's name covering the past two years however it doesn't stipulate how many or what kind. I've done two FLR (M) applications were the guidance is much more specific.
What/How many documents should I provide? Can I just use bank statements, mortgage statements, and a council tax bill?
thanks all!

The document list is inaccurate for SET(LR) as those documents are NOT required at all. SET(LR) has nothing to do with your dependants/partner/children. You must apply on your own and qualify on your own.

huh ok thanks.
I am applying on my own and will include my marriage certs and my children's birth certs as they ask for. I'm guessing they will be most concerned with my old passports and ensuring I haven't spent too much time out of the UK?

Again, what the online form asks is not correct for SET(LR). You need to provide whatever the immigration rules require. This has been discussed many times on the forum. UKVI will rely mostly on their records to evaluate if you stayed more than 540 days outside the UK however you need to provide all your passport details covering the last 10 years. What you provide on the form simply guides the caseworker in the right direction. Your eligibility and documentary evidence will be evaluated as per the immigration rules
