@rachellynn1972 thanks for your post earlier, the reason why I am not keen in applying in the uk is the fact that my wife hasnt excersised her treaty rights in the last 3 or so years because she was looking after our two children. even though we are self sufficient, I didn't know that we needed to h...

Super answer Ninjaman - thanks for that. I have a question about proving residence: obviously, not everyone will work and, therefore, some people won't have pay slips/P60s. Do you think it's acceptable to provide a range of electricity/gas bills etc in the applicant's name? Hope so, but, if not, is...

@laspo24

while am here I will answer more of you questions.

1) residence checker is not needed for people applying from NI
2) P60 and payslips should be fine just don't send mobile phone bills they don't count

best of luck
