Do I need to duplicate uploading docs?

Post by grreg » Mon Oct 17, 2022 11:11 am

I'm applying for naturalisation for myself, spouse and 2 children under 10.

I am a bit confused by the categories of documents in the UKVCAS website.
In my daughters area do I need to also upload the BRP's for myself and my wife. These documents are already uploaded in each of our own areas.
Is it better to upload them again or will they figure it out?

Also when I submitted the form my son's foreign passport was soon to expire. He has received a replacement passport now.
So the passport number in his application document does not match his current passport. Of course I will upload scans of both - but will this cause any issues?

Also when I submitted the form my son's foreign passport was soon to expire. He has received a replacement passport now.

No sin in failing, you just have to try and try again!

The passport change won't cause issues, just explain in the cover letter.
