If in the certificate they are gonna mention that I need to get my payslips and service letter ready.
Ready for what? All the requirements for an ATAS certificate are in the application itself. There is no second stage of requirements or evidence.

What I meant was if they have include details about my work experience in the atas certificate then, I have to show work experience documents such as pay slips and service letters when applying for Visa.
What I want to know is , what information they include in an atas certificate ( other than the applicant’s name, University nane)

That doesn't happen. The ATAS clearance does not prompt you needing more evidence or documents for your application.

Okay. Thanks alot for all your replies.

I have studied in UK previously. Do you know why we have to provide the national insurance number when filling tier 4 student visa ?
And is there any way to find out if I have worked more than 20 hours during term time (because I cannot remember if I did so ) , If I have overworked previously will it be a problem when I apply for visa now :(

Given your ongoing questions about different aspect of the application, I suggest you use the detailed one-to-one immigration advice that your university offers.

I’m sorry for asking so many. Bit nervous about getting the Visa. That’s why.

This will be my last question and I would appreciate if anyone could answer this please

Because the application form requires it, and all questions are mandatory.

Ask your employers.

Yes, in theory because you were in breach of your conditions.

When I was on Student Visa I went to the gp two times. Once to get a cream for a rash where I had to pay for the pharmacy. When filling the tier 4 application they have asked have you ever received medical treatment in the uk?
Should I answer yes or no to this question?
And do I have to mention all my visits to the gp while in uk ?

Thank you

Hi,

I would like to know does the Visa processing days ( for example 15 working days ) calculated from the date of the application ( the day Visa fee paid) or from the biometrics enrolled day ?

Thank you.
