Submitting supporting documents - proposed civil partner visa

Post by Ianto » Tue Nov 17, 2020 7:24 pm

Hi
My proposed civil partner in Thailand will be applying for his proposed civil partner visa online on gov.uk shortly. He doesn't want to upload his documents himself, so he wants to take them to his appointment after submitting the application for them to be scanned there. He is aware of an extra cost. I have supporting documents to submit as well, e.g. proof of finances, accommodation, passport, etc. Is it best for me to post all my documents out to him in Thailand or am I able to submit mine here. Again I would rather not just upload them, as I have heard there can be problems with this? Will I be able to take them to an office to have them scanned in the UK for me? Not too sure of the documents submission process. Thanks in advance.

Most applicants usually are more inclined in self uploading to have a better control over the documents which isn't the case when being done by someone including the VFS centre staff. However, if you are still willing to get it done by vfs and if that facility available there then simply scan & send your documents to applicant instead shipping them.

Thank you for your reply.
As for my passport, would a certified copy be sufficient? Or would my proposed civil partner need my actual passport to show at his appointment in Thailand? Thanks again.

Your own passport is not needed at the appointment. For required document from you simply scan and email to your spouse.
