First, my case - I am a british citizen via T1(G) - 5 year route now. My spouse is on T1(G) - dependent from Feb-2013. Spouse is in full time employment (essentially NI every month).

1. I should use SET(O) form as spouse is PBS dependent. Is that correct?

2. Spouse current extension started May-2015. Does "maximum two year" cohabitation proof applies as in SET(o) farm section 12.A OR I need to prove cohabitation from May-2015?

3. How much of cohabitation proof documentation is required? I don't want to overdo it as my spouse is paying NI every month anyway and UKVI has access to HMRC record. I just want to submit a minimum set easily available with me (if it works).

1. Set(O) yes. She is the main applicant.

2. The 2 years preceding date of application.

3. Ideally 6 items in joint names spread evening over the period, every 3 to 4 months.

I am preparing for T1 dependent ILR.

Somewhere on forum, I read that I need to have photocopy set of document as well.

If true, do I need to photocopy all the "cohabitation documents" which are essentially payslips, insurance letters, general letters etc?

Applying in person, copies yes.

Applying by post, no.

Thank you CR001

There is no minimum fund requirements for ILR application for dependent as I understand.
SET(O) still asks about "your finances".

Does it mean I need to carry three months of bank statement with me?
Does it need to be from two sources i.e. payslips + bank statement combined?
