You label the KJV,NKJV,NAS,NIV translations as inerrant. What is the timeline for the oldest translation and where did they get the documents they translated? When did the Bible get actually collate3d in it’s correct form and by whom?

Are you arguing that those versions are not accurate as to their adherence to the orignial Gospel? Before we go there, I still need to know where the doctrine of needing to belong to the Roman Catholic church comes from and it's claim that that necessity supercedes one's salvation thorough the Grace of God thourgh Christ's sacrificial death and ressurection. the OP was about whether one's salvation is necessary to come through the Roman church.

In a strictly non-contentious manner, I’ll point out that most Protestants agree that the KJV, NKJV, NASB, NIV, ESV etc are sound translations. They normally are not considered inerrant.
Scripture was used as such from the first century on. Various councils have come up with lists for the canon, but the Orthodox list is not identical to the Catholic list, which differs from the Protestant and a few other canonical lists. For Catholics, the authoritative listing came in the Council of Trent, although it largely confirmed what had been in use by Catholics for over 1000 years.
Protestants generally reject the Apocrypha, which largely but not entirely coincides with the Deuterocanonicals.
