Hi From_india,
You need to show the place where you will stay in UK. This is compulsory. You can make a temporary booking in some hotel and cancel the same later. Search this forum for hotel bookings. You will get lot of information.

Hi Marvel,
Yes. Either you can show hotel booking (or) if any of your friends are in the UK, they can give a letter that you can stay with them.
You can book a hotel and later cancel the booking also. Search this forum on hotel booking. There are many useful threads.

Hi Ashish,
In the VAF1 Form, do we need to fill 'Section 7 - Employment in the United Kingdom'? If yes, could you tell what we need to mention?

Hi Ashish,
Thanks for your reply. One more clarification:
Do we need to put all the documents in a Folder (like when we sent for HSMP) and give to VFS (or) we need to give the docs only to VFS and they will arrange accordingly?
Looking forward to your reply.
