ILR - evidence for countries lived outside the UK

[spynapple]

Hi

In the ILR application there is a section that asks about “have you lived in any country outside the UK, including your home country”.

In my case, I was born in UAE, moved to India when I was 1.5 years old, moved back to UAE before high school, then moved to India again for my undergraduate degree – and then moved to the UK.

The application asks for specific dates for entry/exit for each of these events. I have provided the dates in the application – however, as these happened a very long time ago, I am only able to provide these information based on the best of my knowledge and without any supporting evidence.

Has any of you had this experience and are you able to share if this is acceptable?
Do I need to write a coverletter to explain this?

Mine is a same day decision premium service appointment and I submitted the application online. The list of documents to submit along with the application does not mention anything about providing any evidence for this – but since I’ve moved back and forth between two countries I just wanted to be sure.

Thanks in advance for your responses.

Maybe it would be best to provide a covering letter in explanation to this.
