But you do not have to produce 20 items ... just for you. You need to produce 20 items that are either in both names, or addressed to just one of you, at the same address as your partner.

Indeed if you just supply the 7 joint items, and 13 items addressed to just you, the application would be bound to fail. Why? The purpose of this test is to ensure that the two of you live together! Merely having items addressed to you, with a few in joint names, fails to prove that.

When I apply for IRL last month there is only 4 types of documents thats in my name, the rest is my husband and we dont even have joint one, i think it depends on the caseworker as well. One thing I am sure of as long as that kinds of evidence is spread out for the last 2 years it should be fine. Letter from NHS and doctors will help as well.
