I repeat AGAIN. There is NO FORMAT. You either have all the information required on an FPS report or not.

Thanks Zimba . Iam afraid I dont have all the requirements on the fps as the fps log gives an encrypted one.

On the issue of Document update, just wanted to share my experience.

I submitted my application on 28th Feb 2017 and it was approved on 10th May 2017.

During the process, I sent in two additional documents - one on 15th March (when I spotted an error in my employees' name between Payslip and Passport) and a second one on 27th March ( I wanted to clarify my earlier submission of starting date in FPS because we had changed payroll systems, so I decided to explain that using the FPS of a new hire we had in March).

I am not sure if either one was important for the decision making. I considered the error in name critical but not the second update. Both the additional documents were returned to me with the approval. So, that at least confirms that they were received and processed with my application.

So, that would suggest that sending additional documents, if needed, is always worth it.

I don't remember if there was a case worker name. I just wrote the Case ID in big letters on top of the envelope (of course, referred to CaseId inside too).

I sent them 1st class signed for. But delivery took much longer than the Royal Mail's estimate of next working day.

If I had known it was going to be that delayed, I would have used Special Delivery (guaranteed next day) for the 1st set of additional documents, at least.

Just send to Sheffield address with your case reference number. They will link the documents to your application within 1 week after receiving them. They do accept an extra documents before the decision.

Hi dear, congrats on your visa
I have applied 9 months ago and since then only interview in oct. all my documents iz fine, but the lawyer made mistakes in filling application form and then in cover letter. I realised this couple of months ago but he told me there is no use in sending them again and they will be consider your case based on the docs and not forms and cover letter.

Do you think sendind them NOW , is better or makes it worse? PLEASE HELP

This comes late.

But yes, you should send additional documents as soon as you can.

The criteria seems to be documents received "when the application is considered" not when it is received, though I have no idea what considered would mean.
