Wedding photos can be pasted on ms word file around four per page and whatsapp calls/chat' snapshots can be converted into 4-6 frames per page by using a softwAre to keep the size to minimal. Keep them up to 6mb

Plenty of free frame making software available online from Google drive/apple store. They can do this job in seconds

Data cable. Or you can upload them directly @ vfs/ukvcas website from your phone.

hi seagul.thanks for your helpful advice mate.i will see if i can do it as you said.also does ukvi accept files that are not physically scanned onto the computer and then uploaded e.g if i download my bank statements online from my online account with my bank and then simply upload it to vfs site without printing n thn physically scanning it.my bank said its the exact copy of the statements i would receive in post if i order them.it wont say its online copy or anything like that

What you have got is enough without needing for another letter.

No need of any certification/notarisation. Also both compositions (color/black &white) are acceptable provided up till 6 MB.

Depending on printer you are using, from setting you can directly scan it in A4 without the need to photocopy first in A4 before scanning. Note that what finally gets uploaded should be the A4 size.

Anecdotally making repetitive attempts around midday/midnight give good results.

I won't worry at all provided the file have successfully been uploaded. Also UKVI can request if something finds missing.

No issue if it is only in sole name. Accomodation evidence seems more suitable.

Sponsor evidence will be fine

Is there a reason you want to submit a 'citizenship certificate'?

Is it because there is no other evidence of your sponsor's qualification to sponsor you?
