Re: Previous UK immigration applications in the UK or abroad?

I have another question please. I am applying for Naturalisation application and I have 4 passports in total, 2 of which cover the last 5 year period but I am in UK since 2009 (when I first arrived). On UKVCAS website (Sopra Steria) do I need to scan biometrics page of all 4 passports or just 2 passports that cover the last 5 year period.

Do I also need to scan my 2009 visa page on my first passport as well?

Your help will be much appreciated.

Many Thanks.

Kind Regards,
Blue Skies.

Just the passports covering the five years, only bio pages and any stamped pages.

Thanks alterhase58, there is another question above that I asked about reference number. Your guidance on that will be much appreciated.
Just one more question, under the same section:

Enter your reference number if known: ______

What does this refer to? I have got the following from the letter we get from home office upon approval:
Our Ref: 1 Letter 7 Digits / xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx (1 Letter 7 Digits ref is same across all my applications)
Case ID: 9 Digits
Or is it a Biometric number?

Which reference number do we need to add.

Any help will be much appreciated.

Many Thanks.

Kind Regards,
Blue Skies.

Note the wording "Enter your reference number if known" - so you could leave it blank or use any number you have available - in your case it makes sense to use the seven digit number as it's been used throughout.
