IELTS verification doubt - should I worry?

Post by dosknyppxpuxtg » Tue Mar 31, 2009 1:24 am

Hi Everyone,

I sent in my Tier 1 (General) application last Friday and I'm just wondering if I should have provided an additional note along with my application. Here's why:

The Candidate ID on my IELTS certificate states my previous passport number, which expired due to reaching 10 years and was replaced with a new one, issued in London, which, to make matters worse, got lost last year and I got myself yet another passport!

So, I'm just wondering if this should be something I should worry about and try to explain to UKBA when my confirmation for application receipt comes in?

Thanks in advance.

This should be fine as HO can always pull your old passport info from their records.

Hi,

Thanks for that.

I do hope that HO can pull my details. In my case, the IELTS passport was the one I used to come to the UK for the first time on Working Holiday, during which it expired and I got a new passport (the second one). When my WH visa expired, I went back home, applied for a WP and came back to the UK on my second passport, which got lost and now I have the latest one.

I hope that HO does have all the records.
