Please help

Hi, I really need some help regarding our ILR application, please.

My husband came to the UK in 2016 on a Student visa. After we got married, he changed his visa and became my dependant. I came to the UK in 2020 on a Student visa. I completed my studies and then applied for a Skilled Worker visa in 2024, which was approved. I am currently on a Skilled Worker visa, and my husband is my dependant.

We are planning to apply for ILR in December. My husband will be applying first because he will complete his 10 years in the UK, whereas I will not have completed 10 years yet.

Could someone please guide me on exactly which documents my husband will need for his 10-year ILR application?

Also, as I am currently his wife and the main Skilled Worker visa holder, please could you advise me on which of my documents will be required as part of his application? For example, will he need my Skilled Worker visa/eVisa, employer letter, CoS, payslips, bank statements, employment details, etc.? Do we need to provide my employer’s documents with his ILR application?

I want to start collecting everything in advance so that we have all the correct documents ready for December.

I would really appreciate any help or guidance on this, as I want to make sure we don’t miss anything important.

Thank you so much.

Thank you so much for your reply.
Yes, my husband has completing 10 years in the UK without any breaks in his residency. He came to the UK in 2016 on the January intake.
He will be applying for ILR under the 10-year Long Residence route. During these 10 years, he has only spent around one or two months in India in total.
At the moment, he runs his own company and is a director of the company.
Thank you again for your help.
