EEA2 - Return of Documents request - file format query.
Posted: Sat Jun 01, 2013 4:03 pm
Sorry if its a bit of a computer question, but I'm unsure of the file format I sent.
I downloaded the form from the UKBA site, but it opened to reveal a mess of characters, that made no sense at all.
I presume it's because I don't have Microsoft Word on my laptop.
Anyway, after messing around converting with Google Docs, and then an online converter from docx to doc, I think I sent it at last, but it went as .docx format.
UKBA web-site says: "You are advised to email a Word document of the application"
And, according to the actual form, it says: "Please attach this form (in Word format only) "
I have read that some people have had their requests returned due to them sending in the wrong format, so I'm just asking if the docx format will do the job.
