Previous passports, etc

Post by nafe12 » Tue Apr 16, 2013 6:16 pm

Do you guys include all your previous passports in your application for a Tier 1 G Extn? Or just the passport used to get the original Tier 1.

I have an old expired passport with some PSW and UK student visas, which was included in my application for my original (current Tier1). That passport was expired at the time.
So I assume that only my recent/current passport (which was used to obtain my current Tier 1 visa) is relevant.

Though the guidance isn't clear
C6. Do you have any passport or travel document which contains a previous grant of leave or
which you used when you last travelled to the UK?
Sure - a previous grant of leave like 5 years ago, not sure if that's relevant.

Thanks..

U need to send passport having current visa not the previous ones where visas and passports both are expired.
On the application forms u can tick both the option:
Enclosed (having current visa) as well as Not closed (they are expired).
I did the same.

I personally only submitted the 2 passports which contained my original EC (Economic migrant) and subseqent T1G visa. I had a former passport which contained old Student and visit visas in them, which I did not submit (as I believed they were not relavent to my stay in the UK as a economic migrant this time around). I did this for both my T1G applications and subsequent ILR application and no questions were raised. But you may want to submit all passports if you feel there is recent immigration background in them that could be relevant to your application.
