1.you need to get police clearance from all the countries you stayed more than six months after 18 years of age.
2.you can mention the gap as unemployed.
3. If you ever lived in Sri Lanka for more than 6 months, you need to take police clearance from Sri lankan police else no need.

Don't forget to pay biometric fees along with others fees. Also attach more evidence for your relationship which is more important.
