I have been informed by someone so wasn't sure if that is true that we will be eligible for ILR only after completing 10 instead of 5 years

We regularly hear these kinds of rumours that have no basis in reality. What someone says is irrelevant. The changes to the rules are often announced in advance by the home office

See zimba's reply.

Note that you can upload any document under whichever category, just ensure it is uploaded as CW will check through ALL uploaded items.
