Submitting cover letter and docs - HOW?

[Pixie2017]

Hi All,

I have spent most of my afternoon on here reading various posts and putting together a checklist of information.
You have all been incredibly helpful and provided so much more information than the direct gov website! Had I of gone of there "checklist" I would have been missing so many important documents.

My questions is,
When submitting the cover letter, supporting documents do you do this online or via post? I have started to put together supporting documents, employment, income, financial support, invitation letters. I currently have them all printed out in a folder under the assumption I would post them in, but am I best saving them on my laptop as PDF's to submit online/send via email?

It's all uploaded online and attached to your application via uploading things to your UKVCAS profile (unless you chose assisted service, but that would be extra unnecessary steps - don't do that).

Everything is uploading online and submitting through the online portal.

You upload them online. Not posted and not sent by email.

Thank you for your speedy response

I have read that because I live in my mums home, I need a letter from her inviting my husband to stay in the property.
I am also in the process of putting together a cover letter from myself and from him with a "brief" over view of the relationship, application, documents supplied etc.

I am assuming there will be a place to upload these on the portal.
