FLR(M) process for the older americans

I have to submit FLR(M) application by mid June, and I have some  questions I hope the collective brain trust can help me with.  My wife a UK born dual national has been resident here since 05/17 and me since 09/17. 
 
(1) First can anyone recommend an immagration advisor or law firm that knows the FLR(M) application for an American?

here are some of my questions:

(2)  We have 5 income streams that are all pensions (category E) and the FM.SE seems way to simple for income evidence - it says 1 monthly bank statement showing deposits. Should I provide more or do I just do what it says.

(3)  Should I even show savings when my income is several times the minimum required income.

(4) There is a question about listing all other countries lived in.  The paper LFR(M) application from 2016 has guidance that says --lived in for more than 5 years-  There is no guidance I can find for this question on the current on line application. I lived in 3 different countries for no more than 4 years at a time and the last time was 39 years ago. Any opinion on how that should be answered.

(5) is there a UKVA guidance doc that has explanations for each question?

I am thinking I should get some legal help  but do remeber how helpful I found this forum in 2017.  Thank you

Unless you have a really complicated application (serious criminal convictions or illegal working/overstaying in the UK), you do not need a lawyer. Not to mention, I've lost track of the number of people who have found this forum having been given very bad advice by lawyers. We can help you prepare your application for free here on the forum .

Just do what it says:

you need at least 1 bank statement showing the payment(s) and an official document from the pensions companies giving details of the pension amount, payments and your entitlement.

(3)  Should I even show savings when my income is several times the minimum required income.

Nope. You can either show savings only (£62,500) or income only (£18,600) - so if you meet one, you don't need to show the other.

(4) There is a question about listing all other countries lived in.  The paper LFR(M) application from 2016 has guidance that says --lived in for more than 5 years-  There is no guidance I can find for this question on the current on line application.

I believe the online application requires you to list travel for the last 10 years?

(5) is there a UKVA guidance doc that has explanations for each question?

Not anymore. It's all in the online form.. .and also, that's where we can help you .

You do not need to provide evidence of all of your pensions if you meet the £18,600 income requirement with just one or two of them. You only need to meet the threshold.

If you do have savings of £62,500 (instantly accessible with or without penalty and held in full for greater than 6 months) then, as mentioned, you don't need to use your pension income at all. Savings is the easiest route usually.
