Hi All,
I thought I will post my timeline as well as provide an index of the evidence I provided with my application. I’ve not seen a lot of people posting this type of info and it would have been helpful for me to have had an example of evidence submitted for the application, I hope this would help a few others as well. 
Based on non-EU unmarried partner to EU citizen.

All in all, it took 14 weeks from submittal date.
Would have been quicker but my partner required his passport to travel for business. 
We submitted a certified true copy of my partner passport (received from our bank) with a letter from his company advising that he requires his passport to travel for work.
HO required to see the original document, there is also a service where the Local Council can verify your passports and then you don’t require to submit the original passport with the application. Unfortunately, there was a 6-week waiting period for this service

- Certified true copy of my partner passport with letter from his company, later replaced with his original passport.
