Hi there,
I am going to apply for ILR SET (M) this month. Please guide me about documents
as it online application they ask about Documents to be Scanned.
Can I scan the documents at home and send them the original. Sorry, I am In the Documents filling section on Online. I didn't declare and Pay yet? 1Please advise.
what is that they ask us to take the documents to Biometric if we can't scan them?
Thank you!!

You don't post originals to Jo. You scan and upload them before the ukcvas biometric appointment.

Many Thanks,
Fathima.

Typo, should be HO.

Yes.
will they give my original document back?
You do NOT send originals anymore. You get to keep them.
and In the application, they didn't ask about previous Address history ? I am Applying 5 year partner route
Only complete what is asked for. You will however have to submit 2 years evidence of cohabitation in both your names.

You book an appointment and upload your documents after you pay and submit your application. Its busy so free slots are less. You might have to wait for long. If you are in a rush you may have to pay or travel to another location if your lucky to get an earlier free slot there.
Note this is someone else’s thread. Please start your new topic for any further questions.

Hi there,
My Husband company only provide online payslip.
Can I submit the online Payslip for the ILR application. His Company will provide the employment letter which is on the company headed paper.
Will the online payslip be okay for the application?
And, We have the original bank statement which shows the Salary is being paid into the account
Is that enough?
Please help, I am going to apply SOON!!!!
Thank You!!

yes. You have to scan all your documents and upload it online anyway. So the e-payslip is fine. they didn't keep any original or photocopy of my document as they are already uploaded.

Dear All,
I applied for SET (m) on 27 September 2019. I received an email from UKvisa for further documents to support my application.
Like bills from last 2 years and English Language letter from my University in addition to UK NARIC statement of comparability.
I have provided the letter and the documents today.
Will I get an acknowledgement email?
Has anybody been through the same situation?
How long will they take to decide the application after this ?
Thank YOU

Dear All,
I didn’t send a letter from university and they need few documents like bills to support my application. By Grace of Almighty, I received an email saying my ilr application is granted.

Is it? But I received an email from my case worker today. Whom requested me for additional documents to support my application.
I am not confused now. Everyone has different scenario’s I think! Some has got BRP card first and the email states that I will receive my letter and BRP card shortly.
