The envelope that ukvacs provide is slightly larger than A4, I was rather shocked when I saw it, and poor Tonet had to un-do our slick presentation folder and squeeze everything in to this damn envelope.

Cue Philip the sungit! Sorry sweety!

My advice would be to have everything as small and neat as possible, use A4 sheets inbetween each section with a header on each piece of paper stating what is within that section.

i.e.

Proof we have Met, Support, Accommodation and so on. We put our pics and receipts in the small envelopes you get when you process photographs and put relevant dates on each envelope.

Think A4, neat and compact and follow the order that ukvacs state on their check list and you'll save yourself the hassle of screwing around with documents when you get to ukvacs. All our original stuff went in the folder they provided and our copies where just separate and tied together.

I've read others have paid extra to be able to submit more though.

Anyway, this was our experience of submitting the application.
