Dear all
I have appointment tomorrow for naturalisation and only now I have uploaded all the required documents.. But I dont see the option now to submit .. is it due to the fact that I uploaded in last minute ( day before the appointment ) thats why ? But all the documents are uploaded .
is there any problem that I cant submit now ?
what is the procedure ? do I need to tell them tomorrow that I have only uploaded and didnt submit etc?
I understand I should submit before 48 hours of appointment.. but I uplaoded all the documents only now ..

could somebody tell me if its s problem ?

thanks
Sam

Self-submission is OPTIONAL. If you want to benefit from the new feature, you must upload and self-submit up to 48hrs before the appointment. If you do NOT want to self-submit, you can upload ANYTIME before the appointment date and submit at the appointment itself. Self-submission is recommended as you may save some processing time - your documents are sent to UKVI even before biometrics in this case. You can self-submit only ONCE. But if you forget to upload any documents, you can always upload later on (after self-submission) and submit at the appointment then (you will not be able to self-submit again but can submit at appointment again).

Read “self-submit” “submit” “upload” separately.

Just submit tomorrow. No issues.

Sorry bothering on this again. Actually today afternoon is my appointment. If I understood correctly, I can submit only in the UKVCAS center after I submitted my biometrics right ? coz I still dont find the option to self submit via my login page.

You can self submit up to 48 hours before your appointment. So you can't do it now if your appointment is today.
