Thanks to every1 who's given an effort to answer my query. I am glad that I have posted a request here. Now I can work confidently and with much relief

I was wondering if I should send the original documents along with other certified documents (uk employer reference, uni certificate) in the same pack. I know I will lose them, but will it create any other problem.

BD boy,

What I did was to attach Color copies (XEROX) of original certificates my application (without notory attestation) and ACS had no problems with it.

You must have good copy centres in UK for color copies.

Thanks Mr India,

I have already sent my originals because I can get extra copies from my employer

That's great... now you have to just wait and let ACS officer work on your case.

Good Luck.

One other thing, would it matter if I send the documents before they ask me to do?

I have been looking at other people's comments and most of them have send documents once they have been asked for.

ACS asks for the documents they need if you file online assessment application. But for paper application you send all documents at once and wait for their mail.

I have not applied online so, I don't really know much about it, but I can suggest you to wait for them to ask for documents so that you know they are expecting your mail and it is not lost unattended in ACS.

Good Luck ..
