Hi do i need to pass my life in the UK test before applying for ILR? or is this only required for citizenship?

Thanks

Hi I was hoping to get some guidance on the following.
Just recently passed my Life in the UK test and applying for ILR on the basis on 10 years stay in UK

I came in Nov 2002 and was on student Visa until 2007 (5years)
Then 2 years on Post study from 2007 to 2009 (2 years)
Then 3 years on EEA family member visa. My Mrs. in EEA national and practicing her EEA rights here in UK (3 year)

I have a few doubts and would appreciate some clarification please.
1) Currently My wife lives in London and I live in Southampton (because of Jobs) is this going to cause any complication?
2) As I am currently on EEA family member Visa, Do I need to send her ID / passport as well? I am asking this as I am applying for myself at the moment on the reason of being here for 10 years.
3) Also we never got to change the title on her ID card / Passport (European) so it still reads Miss instead of Mrs. Any advice on this?

Just to clarify I am not applying for PR on the basis on EEA family member as I will need to wait another 2 years for that

Many thanks in advance

I think you would be fine applying based on the legal 10 years time sent in the UK

The form doesn't ask for your wife's details. So this is not relevant.

2) As I am currently on EEA family member Visa, Do I need to send her ID / passport as well? I am asking this as I am applying for myself at the moment on the reason of being here for 10 years.

Send what the form asks for.

3) Also we never got to change the title on her ID card / Passport (European) so it still reads Miss instead of Mrs. Any advice on this?

See q 1 above.
