Biometric letter came on 4th April(for PO) for myself and 2 dependent, went to PO on 13th April and came out that my(main applicant's) bar code could not be read. Suc...

Hi Reddevil12, I have not yet submitted the application but going to submit in next 3-4 days. Still confused about whether to mention the FPN or not. Also not sure what to mention in "Details of the sentence or civil judgment (give details on a separate sheet if more space is needed)" Stil...
