Original passport

Post by gagmix » Sat Oct 09, 2021 2:59 pm

Hi,
I’m eligible to apply for British passport on the basis of British spouse. I’m on ILR and I’ve all required documents scanned such as :
- Old and new passport
- Masters degree + life in uk test number
- Spouse passport copy
- marriage certificate
- ILR brp card

Am I missing any documents here? Also ver importantly, I do need to apply for Dubai work visa so I need my Indian passport. Do I have to send my original passport with the application? Can copies are not suffice?
Online application is very confusing where they are saying passports must be original but later on saying do not send any physical documents.

Please advise
Thanks

No originals are sent to HO anymore. Everything is uploaded digitally.

You should take your originals to your UKCVAS appointment for identity check though.

Please DO NOT send me a PM for immigration advice. I reserve the right to ignore the PM and not respond.

This is amazing. Thank you. I’ll submit my application today.

One last question around documents. Am I missing anything there?

Thanks
