The guidance does ask for this (in the past it did not) but in practice it's not a rule that seems to have been applied universally. Many people continue to apply without providing copies (having overlooked the requirement) and do not encounter any problems. I guess they are simply grateful to those that do as it saves them a trip to the photocopier room.

If you are going to provide copies you should copy everything. But why do you have a lot? Are you over-egging the pudding with non-essential paperwork that is not relevant to the application?

i would suggest to make only necessary docs copies.I mean those which are in the list of required docs(passport,payslips and bank statements) and let them make photocopies of the rest docs they choose themselves
