Yes. I was only waiting for an update on facial image but this happened.

Replied to the email immediately after and also attached a cover letter with my immigration details which I have accidentally missed in my application (the same uploaded on UKVCAS). I'll keep my fingers crossed and hope :)

Re: Tier 2 General to ILR - Query on eligibility, application and documents

I had only front and back pages of my passport in 'Proof of Application' section and totally ignored the entire 'Proof of Identity/Travel History' section.

Will certainly upload all of my passport in to the later section as you mentioned. Thanks!
