Don't worry about the dates on your RC. That's null and void anyway now that you have divorced.

Your activity in UK is probably immaterial, its all about wife exercising treaty rights as your sponsor..

Is wife an A8 national? If so make sure she was fully and properly registered for WRS.
Since becoming self-employed are you sure wife's work can be considered genuine and effective?
Be aware HO will also apply their MET/PET tests to assess the work. If that all checks out then all good.

Suggest shoot for confirmation of PR possibly/probably acquired at time of 5th wedding anniversary.
Based on stated facts, your spouse/sponsor has been a qualified person from your wedding through to your anniversary,

This assumes neither of you enjoyed any prolonged absences from UK.
It also assumes you have rock-solid documentary supporting evidence since 2010.
(If you are now estranged there's ways and means to get this).

Thanks @noajthan,ex wife is from Netherlands,

We don't have any prolong absence from uk

And her work Is genuine and effective, she's an hairdresser

Working from home,Tax return of year 2015-16 in place,

Bank account of money showing customers paying in and invoice for customers paid in cash.

Adverts on yell and 192.com,flyers and business card,

All I will just need might be profit and loss account from April

2016-June 2016 when decree absolute was issued.

Hope this can help .. Please members Your opinion is need pls

All good. No WRS nonsense to worry about then.

Shoot directly for PR, looks like you acquired it by late 2015.
