FLR(M) use of N/A (mechanical question)

Post by KumaYama » Sun Sep 11, 2016 7:06 pm

Hello :D

Probably a daft question, but I know how particular the UKBA can be...

I'm helping my (Japanese) wife fill in her form (I'm British).

When filling in the FLR(M) there are several questions not related to my situation, some with little squares for answers, some without. I was wondering, when I skip an irrelevant question, should I put 'N/A', or leave it blank? I am worried that leaving it blank is too ambiguous.

Also, if I write this anywhere other than within the little squares will it void the whole application? (And on that note, is the application voided if any letter, tick or mark creeps outside the box?)

Thank you, I may well post other questions in other new threads, so I apologise if there is a bit of a bombardment of questions!

I would just leave any boxes that are not relevant blank. I doubt it matters if a tick or letter goes slightly outside the box but, like you, I would worry! So I would try and make sure you keep all ticks, marks and letters within the box!

UKBA was abolished in 2013 so 'they' won't care anymore.

Ah, ok, thanks guys. I'll leave them blank. It's easier to do that when your hands are shaking like mine...
