I (a US citizen) sent off my printed out online application (+ Appendix 2) for a settlement visa + supporting documents to Sheffield last week, but yesterday they sent a message mentioning that more could be sent.
We went a bit overkill with some of the other documents, but should he send those items he had to Sheffield as well?
We got nearly everything from past checklists from this site for visa applications, although some of his supporting documents (proof of accommodation, payment records, etc) got stuck in UPS and never left the UK, so I couldn't send them with my documents....If you have made a Settlement application (except for applications lodged in USA and Canada): you must ensure that your UK sponsor has sent all relevant supporting documentation to the visa section in Sheffield. The documents should be arranged in this order: application form and relevant Appendix* (See below); English language evidence; relationship documents; maintenance documents; accommodation documents. If documents are not received a decision will be taken on the basis on the information that has been provided.
If you have already had your supporting documents scanned in at the Visa Application Centre, or if you have already sent them in to us, please ignore the request for documents.
