    Hi there! I sent an email to VFS Helpline UK VAC asking if the copy of the sponsor's passport needs to be certified by a solicitor, and here's the info I got:

    1. scanned copies of your sponsor’s passport are acceptable.
    2. You do not require a solicitor to certify this document.


    hope that helps!

    i did find that DHL wont allow passports to be sent overseas. I tryed FEDEX and was no problem sending the orginal passport. It was good that i could track it from UK. FRANCE, china and then arriving Manila. After that there was no tracking and eventually arrived in Davao after 5 days/

    wE had to present my original passport at the embassy for our sons passport. They say 10 days to process for is passport and registration.
