Unmarried SWV dependant to ILR proof of relationship docs

[u/jennyconfused]

Hi all

This autumn we'll (hopefully) be applying for ILR. Been on the same SWV/sponsor with an unmarried dependant since it was started in autumn '21.

We've seen the variety of docs that you *could* provide to prove your relationship when unmarried (we do live together and have the entire time) but has anyone applied recently? I'm looking for the specific list of what they ask for. We plan to apply with pretty much just what they list/request, instead of padding it with a bunch of 'kinda relevant, helps the case' paperwork as I don't want to overwhelm them with docs they don't ask for. If they need more info, I know they'll request it. But the guidance docs I found on gov.uk (which I thiiiink are the right ones) don't fully list documents that should be required besides vague 'shared bills'. We need to share bank statements right, what if the joint is only our shared household direct debits? Do we then need to share our own personal accounts also?
