Wow! Thanks for this Martin! I will continue to keep an eye on my inbox and junk mail. I've been watching it like a hawk so I don't think I've missed any emails. **Fingers crossed** I'm sure I'm not the only one with these questions so thank you for registering and sharing your experience. I'm sure ...

Thank you!! Excuse my ignorance/stupidity...Sopa Steria is what they call the online upload system? Do we need to bring all of our original docs to the UKCVAS biometrics appointment, and if so, will they ask for it there? Yes, Sopra is where you upload your supporting documents. I took all of the o...

Strangely comforting to know that I'm not the only one!

So basically, a watched pot never boils.

**Refrains from staring at the door where the post comes in.**

CR001, Thank you!

I can now stop worrying I've missed an email, and start sitting by the door.

The 'no updates' or 'no confirmations' or no way to look up the status of your application is nerve-racking. For me anyway. These boards help a lot. Thank you.

I applied online, towards the end of March (22 March 2019). If you apply online, how is your approval letter arriving? Online or by post? I'm going nuts waiting on mine! :-D Trolling the boards for clues, I keep reading about documents being sent and receiving them back by post etc. Um, as I applied...

The things I'm most unsure about and don't want to get wrong as they are important are.

Life in the UK pass letter. Which category do I upload that under?

My two Referee signed documents. Which category do I upload those under?

Presumably you hold ILR?? Birth cert is not required. Passport is proof of identity and English speaking. Only Liuk test needed. Drivers licence not required either. Thank you. Sounds like I'm struggling with my supporting documents! oops. I best review. Yes I have ILR and I've passed the Life in t...

I left off my husband's passport. No idea what category to put that under either.

Sorry, should have said. I'm an American married to a British Citizen. Been married 13 years and lived here in the UK this whole time. I wasn't specifically asked for my Birth Certificate. Using as supporting document to show proof of Identity and place of birth to show that I speak English as my fi...

I've been searching the boards for this info as well as the UKVCAS, GOV.uk and Sopra websites and I can not find any guidance as to what supporting document is to be uploaded under what category. But it does warn to make sure you upload under the correct one! I've waited till the last minute to uplo...
