hello everyone really hope we could get some advice regarding the spouse visa , we just wanted to know if we've got everything that is needed to be granted the visa
i met my wife in april 2015 in jamaica and we got married in june 2017, she lives in Jamaica so thats where she will be applying from and her 5yr old daughter will also be on the application as a dependant, we have been together over 2 1/2yrs now
we will be providing the following documents

You seem well prepared.
Q1 Seems fine to me...
Q2 I paid about 600 GBP for the 2.5 year Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS). I think you will need to pay for biometrics and IHS for her daughter as well.
Q3 Definitely a good idea to have your wife also write a letter about your relationship and sign it.

Haven't got my decision yet, coming up to the critical 3 month point (60 working days), they say every case is different but you should be prepared for a wait...

You shouldn't need to pay the IHS for your wife's daughter as she should be granted Indefinite Leave to Enter if you are lodging the applications together.

It's not clear if the daughter is the OPs biological daughter? If not then she will need written permission or a court order to leave Jamaica with her won't she?

"i met my wife in april 2015 in jamaica and we got married in june 2017, she lives in Jamaica so thats where she will be applying from and her 5yr old daughter"
2017 - 5 = 2012 DoB, date of meeting his wife 2015, am I missing something in concluding the daughter is not his?

LOL From what the OP said in his post it seem pretty evident that the daughter is not his i.e.
"i met my wife in april 2015 in jamaica and we got married in june 2017, she lives in Jamaica so thats where she will be applying from and her 5yr old daughter"
2017 - 5 = 2012 DoB, date of meeting his wife 2015, am I missing something in concluding the daughter is not his?

So to summarise - he will also need to pay IHS for the daughter.
