1) Yes minus (9) above.
2) Your husband and son will be in the same ACCOUNT (
I am assuming you added your son in the same account as I explained before).
TWO appointment slots will be booked (1 for your husband and 1 for your son) but it will be done together via the same account. The UKVCAS booking system will show appointments together. It will be booked for same time and date but will generate TWO appointment slots (2 booking confirmation barcodes). The prices shown will be x2 also (if it shows £130 it will be £65 each). Read my previous message where I suggested to try/look for free appointments/early cancellations if you want to.
3) Yes same account and login. Upload your husband’s documents under his name and your son’s documents under his name. The system will show their individual names but in the same account and login.

Steps to follow after completing the form online.
Depending on your category, you will fill the appropriate form online:
Step 1: Pay fee and submit application via UKVI ONLINE.
Tip: Date of application is the date you pay and submit online, biometrics date is irrelevant.
Step 2: After payment, you will reach “further actions page.” If you click on “book an appointment,” system will reroute you to create an account on UKVCAS where you can upload your documents and book an appointment.
Tip: You are sent an access code to set up an account on UKVCAS which usually lands up in Junk folder.
Step 3: Booking an appointment with UKVCAS.
You must book an appointment now. IDV is the past except T4. You get 45 working days after submission.
Tip: You are given a deadline to submit your biometrics on the further actions page. Since the backlog for biometrics has subsided, you should meet the deadline.
Step 4: Now you can submit your documents to UKVI via UKVCAS portal even before your biometrics. The option usually appears when you have uploaded all your documents, sign out and sign in again. The option can be found on the “document upload page” right at the bottom.
Note: Self-submission is OPTIONAL. If you want to benefit from the new feature, you must upload and self-submit up to 48hrs before the appointment. If you do NOT want to self-submit, you can upload ANYTIME before the appointment date and submit at the appointment itself. Self-submission is recommended as you may save some processing time - your documents are sent to UKVI even before biometrics in this case. You can self-submit only ONCE. But if you forget to upload any documents, you can always upload later on (after self-submission) and submit at the appointment then (you will not be able to self-submit again but can submit at appointment again - UKVCAS staff will do it for you).
Read “self-submit” “submit” “upload” separately.
Tip: The best approach would be to benefit from the new self-submit feature.
Step 5: Once the process as stated above is completed, you should wait for a decision.

I would recommend you to self-submit documents even before biometrics.
