Re: Adoption and British Citizenship

Hi Both

FLR (M) Is there an order to Supporting Doc's

Hello everyone

I have completed the online FLR (M) application and have uploaded the supporting documents, We have an appointment on Wednesday 30th March.

When I take the supporting documents to the appointment, is there a particular order that they have to be arranged in?

Thank You
