PIP current status checks

Options
Hi,

I'm starting the process to apply for a PIP for my wife, who has a definite leave to remain as my spouse.

After the initial call to register our details, we received a letter from DWP asking to provide evidence of her current status (passport, travel documents, Home Office acknowledgement letters and an application registration card).

Speaking to an advisor from my local cancer service, he said it's an odd rarity that they send out this request. 

I've got my wife's passport, her biometric card but not any official letters other emails which I could print off confirming her stay from the Home Office.

Would that suffice or is there anything else I could include? Any other experiences on this would be helpful.

Thank you

    Perhaps go back to the adviser from your local cancer service (Macmillan ?), and check with him.

    I'd be inclined to include a copy of any 
    official Home Office letters confirming her indefinite leave to remain.
