passport photocopy

[The Husband]

Hello.

Does the sponsor have to give the original passport or is a photocopy fine?

[batleykhan]

Its a photocopy.

Every page must be certified by a solicitor to state that it a genuine copy of the sponsors passport.

Hi

I sent my original passport with other documents and when my wife took it to gerrys they did not take it and asked for a photocopy. My wife got the photocopies the same day and submit application without getting the photocopies attested. Gerry's did not even inform her about any such requirement aswell. I sent an email to the manager at Gerry's asking if its a mistake submitting the photocopies without attestation and is it possible for them to put the attested copies with the application now? he replied as follows

Dear Mr, ,

Thank you for your email, kindly note that its not mandatory that sponsor’s passport copy must be attested, and we already have forwarded your passport to the British high commission Islamabad & we can’t send any additional document separately after submission of the passports. Applicants are instructed to submit the entire supporting document along with their passports.
