Why would they send a copy of the application form in the first place? Bizarre. Anyway, I suggest you wait for the acknowledgement letter to arrive and then send in the missing page with a cover letter including your name, their reference etc. There is no legal basis for the form so as long as they have your full name, dob, you've paid and was sent to the right place, your application is valid.sammy2014 wrote:hi all , I have submitted my application via NCS on Monday. I have just noticed that I have submitted a copy of the application form ( except page 14 with good character with my picture). neither the lady at ncs nor me noticed this on Monday. I still have the original application form.
I need some ideas. what should I do ?
cheers
thank you. my partner copied the form and mixed the picture attached page 14 with the copies so the referee page is original but not the rest of the form. the referees are ok as they are British , accountant and bank officials, there shouldn't be a problem with that.no missing page. except page 14 ,the whole application for is a copy.t123456789 wrote:Why would they send a copy of the application form in the first place?

Usually if they don't like your referee they send you that page and ask you to find a new referee and resubmit.
I will do it like that. they will think I am mad. is there any reference numbers in the acknowledgement letter? or my name and DOB will be enough?t123456789 wrote:I would send it as soon as you receive the acknowledgement letter. If you wait for them it's just going to delay your application.
People often send extra info along, don't think they mind too much. There is a reference number on the letter, also include your address.sammy2014 wrote:I will do it like that. they will think I am mad. is there any reference numbers in the acknowledgement letter? or my name and DOB will be enough?t123456789 wrote:I would send it as soon as you receive the acknowledgement letter.

I would suggest exactly the same thing but would it create some confusion to the case worker or make the application invalid later on saying sammy2014 submitted a copy of an application form in the first place . It would be good if one of the gurus advice on this,t123456789 wrote:People often send extra info along, don't think they mind too much.

I thought about this too, but if the NCS couldn't tell the difference between the copy and the original then maybe the HO won't either. If I remember correctly it should be the original form. For example the HO will accept email and fax applications if they are time sensitive but the original should also be sent.pelen23 wrote:I would suggest exactly the same thing but would it create some confusion to the case worker or make the application invalid later on saying sammy2014 submitted a copy of an application form in the first place .

For the copy:6.3.15
In the type of case described in 6.3.13.a above, the applicant should be given the opportunity to make good the technical deficiency
unless it is clear that the applicant does not meet an unwaivable requirement for registration or naturalisation (see 6.3.28 below).
6.4.5
Applicants may use photocopies of our forms on which to make their application. We do not, however, accept copies of completed forms as the declaration, at least, must be in the original. Applications made by fax or e-mail should not be encouraged but (since the date of an application is sometimes critical) may be accepted provided that the original application form or letter is subsequently received. NB. In order to satisfy the requirement for applications to be accompanied by the appropriate fee, applicants who wish to make their applications by fax or e-mail on or after 21 May 2007 must provide their credit/debit card details.
