Congratulations!

Advice from a friend whose ILR was initially refused for lack of evidence of her marriage, but subsequently granted when she submitted 60+ pieces of evidence:

"My advice to anyone planning to apply for permanent residency: start saving everything. Every bank statement, insurance policy, phone bill, Post-it note, parking ticket, Durex wrapper, milk carton, flat tyre and soggy teabag. Put it all in a big box and send it to the government. Recorded delivery, of course."

All the best. I'll be going down the same road myself soon.
