Thanks

Re: Biometrics & Document uploading

thanks for your response...

do I need to scan the whole passport or just the main page?

Also the council tax bills and water bill, they are both digital copies due to being paperless.

Is this okay or I need to ring them to send me paper copies??


TIA
