Clarification pls on submission and uploading docs.

That's for use with flr and ilr applications..in other words applications within the UK. Previous posts are in connection with settlement apps...from outside.

Your in the UK

Er..true..but the OP isnt! This thread is about settlement visa apps.

Duh I was responded to this bit you wrote

whereas--if the sponsor submits the documents it incurs a £75 fee--and means a trip to one of the addresses above, none of which would have been any use to me--and would incur a lot of travel expenses and neat aggravation. so the postal submission of supporting docs has been thrown out the window ?
As always trying to help that bits true!

Does it mean when you choose to scan.at VFS(Manila) all your supporting documents you dont need to scan yourself?
Since its an option to choose at the center?

Hi,
If you submit all your supporting documents at VFS Manila they will scan it for you. I suggest you submit it there. Its free and less hassle.

Thinks that's my plan...get the lady to submit and scan in Manila...maybe quicker and less hassle and free of course

You don't even need to send all your documents to the Philippines. Just scan it, send it through email and she will just print all the documents and good to go. They don't ask for the original copies.

Oh woow even better...biggest part of her application I have done and put in a folder already..as I go see her on 2 weeks so will send that with me...all rest can scan through to her...that's very helpful...thanks for that

Have a look at this link, take a look at the "self service kiosk" there is a video (I have not watched it) it might help in your preperations
