Thank you so much for the quick reply CR001!

I entered the UK on 18/04/2013 You could have applied for ILR in March already, before the fee increase.

OK is 1 peace a year for each of us OK, 1 for 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018. Yes they are bills, letters from NHS and statements. You need items for every 3 or 4 months, either in joint names or addressed individually to the same address, for the 2 years preceding your ILR application.

On what about accommodation? Depends how long you have been in your own accommodation.

Accommodation:
We lived at the sponsor mothers home from 18 April 2013 to 19 April 2018, as our family got bigger with birth of our second child we moved home, we have the following evidance:

Sponsor mother home:
Tenancy agreement
House inspection report used in my initial spouse visa and FLR (M) Not relevant if you are no longer living there.
Letter from sponsors mother she was happy for us to stay during the peroid above Not relevant if you are no longer living there.

Current home:
Tenancy agreement
Recent rent statement

Sponsors mother is currently away and my husband has written a letter stating that and a direct contact number for her if they need her confirmation? Not relevant if you are no longer living there.

Really!! I was told by lawyer that I should apply within the last 28 days of my BRP expiry.

"You need items for every 3 or 4 months, either in joint names or addressed individually to the same address, for the 2 years preceding your ILR application."

We have these spaced out 4 months and 6 months on other occasions as almost all of my stay in the UK was at my sponsor mothers home.

"Depends how long you have been in your own accommodation."

We moved in on 19/04/2018 and have
tenancy agreement - joint name
1 joint council - tax joint name
2 joint bills - joint name
rent statement from landlord - joint name

Ok does the rest of the application look OK to you?

Oh yes, a very important question:

Salary was going to into a HSBC Advance saving account from Jan 2018 to April 2018, Now into Natwest current account from May 2018 payment, We are submitting 6 months of both accounts, the payslips also show which account payment went into, hopefully this is fine, do we need a letter in the application to explain this?

Then what you have prior to your own place is fine, but you don't need the property inspection report or letter

Thank you so much CR001

Sorry another question, our bank statements are paperless and had to order last 6 months statements but they never arrived, so we printed out from online banking and got NatWest branch manager to Stamp sign and attach he's business card to every statement, I believe this is ok?

However HSBC will not stamp statements, also original have not arrived when ordered by phone, so I made angry call yesterday and they told me, they sent and email to my local branch manager to sign the statements and attached their business card with a letter of authentic, is this also OK?

No.

SECTION 2C: YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR CHILD - Complete if you
are applying as a parent of a child who is present and settled in the UK

SECTION 2C: Complete this section if you are the single parent of a child or children in the UK and you
have had leave to remain as a parent for a continuous period of at least 60 months and you continue to
have sole or shared responsibility for the child or children, or access rights to them.
If you are applying on the basis of your relationship with more than one child, please photocopy this

On the SET M Version 04/2018 (this is the correct one right?) It says:

SECTION 2C: Complete this section if you are the single parent of a child or children in the UK and you

Then section 3 says:
