You would be considered the EEA family member as a relevant person of Northern Ireland. For my application, I included my spouse's birth certificate proving they were born in NI, their British Passport, and their Irish Passport to provide their 'Proof of the identity and nationality'. Also I included my spouse's father's British passport to prove that they meet all of the requirements of 'relevant person of Northern Ireland'(one parent has to be either British or Irish).
This link should work for what evidence counts for the continuous qualifying period -
https://www.gov.uk/guidance/eu-settlement-scheme-evidence-of-uk-residenceHere's the list of acceptable documents in case the link still doesn't work:

I submitted one bank statement from my husband's bank account and one bank statement from our joint account. This proves that we have been living in NI together at some point in the last 6 months.
No the last time I left it was a holiday in 2018 for Christmas.
I didn't copy and paste all of my email the last time, here it is now
'Evidence that your EEA family member has (or had) a continuous qualifying period which corresponds (or corresponded) with yours, for any period you are relying on as the family member of that EEA citizen as follows:
One piece of evidence dated within the last six months, or within the last twelve months if you have been absent for more than six months for an important reason, such as pregnancy, childbirth, serious illness, study, vocational training or an overseas posting. In order to accept a period of absence of more than six months and up to twelve months, the following evidence would be required:
evidence to support an absence as a result of pregnancy, childbirth or serious illness might take the form of a letter or other records from a qualified medical professional
evidence to support an absence as a result of study, vocational training or an overseas posting might take the form of a letter or other records from the relevant educational establishment or employer
evidence to support a period of absence as a result of compulsory military service might take the form of a letter or other records from the relevant government body
Some examples of documents you can use to prove your EEA citizen sponsor’s residence in the UK and Islands can be found at https://www.gov.uk/guidance/eu-settlementscheme-evidence-of-uk-residence '
The above link is dead, so that why I thought about the employer letter as evidence of me living and working here etc? If that makes sense?
