    It does sound as though you may not be as prepared as you ideally should be. You can choose to scan this document and also to supply your Birth Certificate later but is the risk worth it.

    As someone said a few days ago, it is possible that how you prepare for the appointment is seen as an indication of how serious you are about your relationship.

    Personally, I would be inclined to postpone the appointment for a week, scan both documents when you have them ready, send the hard-copies via courier and email the scans as a fall back.

    Be responsible with little so that you can be trusted with much!!

    If you do need to fill it in then print out.

    Scan and then email as a pdf.

    then ask Frances to go to a web cafe and get printed out.

    if its a pdf its easy to print as adobe acrobat is free.

    If you don't have a scanner go to a prontaprint or such place if a mate doesn't have a scanner.

    If you need any help scanning, with files or any techincal issue post it on here and we will sort it ok?

    Sign it and then send the real one

    They have to judge you by the evidence you provide sir.

    Its very hard and the pressure is crazy at this point of the application.
    Keep going the end is near.

    Im sure the rest of your application is all sorted and you have lots of evidence?

    Would be a good idea others may have more experience on rented accomdation.

    Again you could get it scanned and sent over i guess.

    don't take risks, send everything your asked, not worth the money, time and effort to send an app that might get refused

    b4 you send anything to your g/f, check and double check you have everything, or as you've found out it can be costly to send anything by courier ..

    the letter from your landlord approving of your lady staying there is very important, as it's part of the evidence you need to prove you have accomodation for her.

    maybe you could get your landlord to write another letter mentioning his first letter, stating that he aproves of you both staying there, and get it scanned. but i'm not 100% sure they will accept it..

    I did scan a couple of things for Jet's application and e-mailed her for home printing, which she did.

    It was mainly my latest salary slip, bank statement and Xoom transactions receipt.

    It must have been accepted.
    Mind you we had tons of other evidence too.

    i think i remember reading dom if the evidence is from the uk, photocopies maybe accepted,but i think that would depend on what the evidence is,, headed bank statments and pay slips maybe be fine, but not so sure about something as important as a letter from your landlord or uncertified copies of your passport


    maybe worth giving the embassy a call, rather than taking a chance

    My landlord is the local authority. When applying for my wifes settlement visa I asked them for a letter giving permission for my wife to live with me.

    They dragged their heels, the way local authorities do, for months without supplying me with this letter despite my repeated requests saying their legal department was consulting with the Home Office about the matter. My enquiry probably added thousands of pounds to the Council tax bill.

    Eventually I was told that they did not have to give permission for my wife to live with me and could supply me with details of my tenancy and that was all. I take it that this is what you already have.

    Our visa application was successful without the letter of permission so just go ahead but submit copies of your tenancy agreement, current and past rent card with details of the length of tenancy and property description.

    You could add a note that your landlord is under no obligation to give your wife permission to reside with you but I don't think this is absolutely necessary.

    Great post and like you say im sure the less said is the best.

    For example many with leaseholds on flats could in theory have to ensure the landlord allowed your wife or love one to stay but all the leases i have seen actually say its ok for family and partner to reside in legal speak as long as no overcrowding.
