Thanks for the feedback. The P60 is an optional document that is on the checklist from the gov.uk website, therefore I provided it. The others are single page docs I included incase a question arose on the Cohabitance documents which arent 100% evenly spread out, just incase they suspect we havent had a family or lived together.

Property Owner's Passport NOT REQUIRED

This is specifically mentioned on the Mandatory documents as required, as the house is neither owned or rented by myself, but my Partner's Father. Is this still not required? They also asked for the No Objection Letter and Proof of Ownership which were also uploaded by me.

I've also been trying to book my appointment but there are no available slots anywhere for me to do so. I've heard I have to wait to be contacted by email or phone but not sure when this will happen?

Your explanation suffices on the above.

There is no sure pattern that one can trend to reach a calculated guesstimate of when you may be contacted for reuse of biometrics incl pics; It is now a waiting period for getting contacted. However keep checking the website for appointment.

They also asked for the No Objection Letter and Proof of Ownership which were also uploaded by me. The reason you were ask to provide these evidence was due to what you had filled in the application form so if it ask you to provide them on the checklist then I will do that but it doesn't apply to everyone.

I've also been trying to book my appointment but there are no available slots anywhere for me to do so. I've heard I have to wait to be contacted by email or phone but not sure when this will happen? Currently they are still dealing applicants who applied prior before June 30 and you will probably be contacted soon for biometrics reuse or book an appointment in future.

A P60 can also act as an evidence of proof of address/cohabitation instead of ostensibly be a financial document

Property Owner's Passport NOT REQUIRED

If the landlord is a family member who is willing to provide his copy of passport then no harm in attaching it.

Thanks for confirming.

A couple more questions:
1. Would a scanned paper Electric Bill be more 'official' proof of address as opposed to an emailed PDF Travel insurance document?
2. Do the uploaded documents have to be Black and White scanned or can I use Color as long as the size is under 6mb per document?
3. In terms of submitting the uploaded documents to UKVI, do I have to do this before the visa expiry or before they email me with details of booking an appointment/reuse biometrics, which i guess is unknown at the moment ?

1. Both will carry same weight
2.both compositions are fine provided under 6 mb.
3. Until the biometrics appointment

Thanks Seagul, that is very helpful.

I also wanted to provide a Monzo Bank Statement as evidence for Proof of Address but would UKVI accept Monzo as a valid bank? I have paper statements that are stamped and signed by a Monzo representative, but unsure if UKVI like these digital banks?

Yes it would more likely be accepted as a cohabitation evidence.

Thank you everybody for your assistance in my application. Happy to inform it was successful and am waiting for my BRP to arrive Will update the FLR (M) Timelines thread on this.

So it seems even if i didnt have stricly evenly spread across two years, or dated correspondance from a particular time, i had evidence of appointments and checks at the time which was sufficient.

Congratulations. Your checklist was perfectly fine and also be reminded again that any letter from credible sources bearing the name, address & date addressed for any purpose including any appointment/cancellation can be utilized (the same has been positively opinionated several times).
