What do you mean you have a letter from your mother?
What is she going to say?

Personally I think you will struggle to get ILR with this little evidence.
Do you really have nothing else in her name. Junk mail? Anything? The problem is you will also need evidence of 2 years cohabitation to apply for FLR again.
You will need the letter from your mother confirming that you have lived there as a couple for the 2 years. You might also like to include documentation showing that she lives there eg council tax, utility bills, and her rights to live there eg copy of title deeds or rental agreement. This would also prove that you cannot provide these documents in your own names.
All the best. Can anyone else suggest any other course of action.

Dont worry about this. It does not apply. There is no time limit for ILR only for British Nationality and that is something like 450 days in 3 yrs.
Just try and send the application with an explanatory letter and as much documents you can find

Dont mention things like this, it will only raise more doubts. Just an honest explanatory letter pointing out your circumstances and then hope for the best.
It is common knowledge that when you apply for ILR you have to produce various documents and if you cant, then you could be refused
