Workers who need approval to work in the UK cannot count towards the award of
points even if they have permission to work for the applicant’s business. Any holder
of a letter of permission to work under any of the Tier 1 of the points-based system
categories will not count for the award of points.
As your employee is from one of these countries their Passport Copies should suffice the requirement.
