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.
Hi marcnath, congs for the visa. May I know, which address did you use to update your documents to HO please? If I have received a complex letter from Sheffield Team, do I have to send the update to same Sheffield team or Croydon. Thanks

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.

Actually i havent sent them any updates yet .

May i ask you on this note if you sent the documents straight to the case worker as their name was addressed?

or is there a way you have to send please?
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.
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.

Third such case in this forum in the last week or so. Looks like UKVI is making this a trend.

Search for interview questions - I expect in person visit to be along the same lines - the focus being on genuineness of the business.

Know your business and it should not really need much more.

And all have applied on Feb 2017.
Things can't clear in one visit If they only want to see the genuineness of the business.
Some people have 100's of clients and some have 2-3 and they are doing other businesses as well to survive.

@MARCRATH what if someone has changed the address during extension?
I applied in may 2017 for extension and I am changing my office in this month because my contract is ended.
Do you thing I need to inform home office about that?

Tough to say.

You are supposed to inform "change of circumstances" but that is primarily meant for personal circumstances.

I would just be safe and update business changes too, even if it not required.

VISH take it easy ... so is one person only or few of them are coming... so with the call u got email as well.................this is bit strange tbh as they cant go to each and every applicants place and interview them.. this will cost them money and need more human power. i dunoo maybe experts can tell much better. but as all said its new trend... they jus dont want evybody to fullfill all points .. they want to see much more... lets see how it goes.. but please dont worry. if u have space in ur office even jus small u still have smthing to accommodate them... prayers for all who are going through this....
