I did try to find the answer but not very clear hence the post.

1) Should we upload all the pages from passport including empty pages please? I have two passports should i upload both? - Colour or Black and White please?
B&W Should be fine, You should just do the the front page which has the details. On your appointment at UKVCAS, they will scan all pages.
All the uploads should be black and white mentioned on the UKVCAS website



2) UK Master degree certificate
B&W should be fine. They verify on UKVCAS appointment. Make sure you take the original degree certificate along as this would be your proof of English requirement.

3) Softcopy of Letter from Employer (Confirmation + Absence)

For Absence, does below sounds good to cover remote working?

looks okay to me(just my opinion), Are you getting the below letter from your employer? This should also state the forseeable future and your salary
example is below which I got from my employer

MR X joined this firm on [Date] and is employed
by us as a [Your Role]. MR X salary is £ ...
per annum. I can confirm that MR X's salary is above
the appropriate rate for the job as stated in the codes of practice for Tier 2
sponsors and this salary will be paid for the foreseeable future.
I can confirm that MR X is still required for the
employment in question and that his position is considered to be permanent.
In addition I can confirm MR X annual leave allocation
is 27 days and his absences from the UK have been in line with his paid leave
allocation. MR X has also been required to travel on
business from time to time which is highlighted in the attached schedule of
travel.
I trust this information is sufficient for ILR to be granted but please do not
hesitate to contact the undersigned should you require any further
information.

His only period of absence from the country while he has been working with us is as follows:
Looks good, you can also put another column for no.of Days


Date Left the UK Date returned to the UK Country Visited Reason for Absence No.Days
11/01/2018 12/02/2018 India Personal 31(example)
14/09/2018 08/10/2018 India Personal 22

During his absence from the country he worked remotely for the following periods:

From To Country Reason for Absence
29/01/2018 09/02/2018 India Worked Remotely
17/09/2018 21/09/2018 India Worked Remotely

4) Copy of BRP card - Black and White or Colour please?
B&W as it is stated on UKVCAS website. Take the original along

5) Consent for the Home Office to request verification checks Document
B&W, That should be fine.

6) One month Payslip - Printed online
B&W. Should be fine

7) Three month Bank Statement - Stamped on Letterhead and signed

The date of your application is the date of online submission. Documents must be dated before that

I am a bit confused really after reading this topic: indefinite-leave-to-remain/date-of-appl ... 63-40.html

I guess after reading the topic that the date of application is the date you go for your appointment, not the day you submit the online application which all normally apply before to make sure you secure an appointment before the current visa expires.

I hope someone can clarify this point as I am planning to submit the application by around October 25th and book the appointment on Nov 14th as I am eligible from November 12th and submit the latest payslip and bank statement. Would that be ok or not?

You have already been advised. Date of application is the date you pay and submit your application. Biometrics date is irrelevant.

Does that mean your visa expiry date is irrelevant once you submitted the application online even if the appointment is due after the visa expires? Also could you please guide to the guidance where that is mentioned.

Date of application is the date you pay and submit. Once you submit in time (before visa expiry or after you qualify) you are covered under section 3c. Biometrics date does not matter. You can attend the biometrics appointment even after visa expiry does not matter as long you have made an in time application as stated above.

Thanks for the answer. "hijacked" is absolutely not the case. I believe is better using the same topic when talking about the same question instead of opening another topic for the same question

Perhaps you should read the forum rules!!!
