U helping us a lot. Thank you very much.

[@TheWooloffs]

Thank you. I'm glad that this helps. :)

[@razvanneagu5379]

I would like to start by thanking you so much for all your help, and just want to point out how relieved I feel by having an example of straight forward document upload and happy to see that your application was successful with only 13 files uploaded. I know that every application is different, but is overwhelming to watch some other people videos uploading over 200 files , making you thinking that it's impossible to get all that documentation for yourself. Thanks once again and keep up the good work!

Hello, which letter do you have to send as proof of living in the UK for 3 years or 5 years because I have seen that they are saying Bank statement or household bills are not suitable proof you have been living in the UK.

So I took the photos to upload for my application they are JPG but the site is asking for JPEG OR PNG. Are JPG and JPEG THE SAME THING I DID UPLOAD THEM AND THEY WENT UP NO ISSUES I HAVENT SUBMITTED THEM AS YET

[@TheWooloffs]

Hello. Yes they are the same. If there are any problem with the photo format I think the site will not accept it, so I think your photo is ok.

Have they come back to you ? Can we upload photos as long as they are JPG? Thanks

Hi, do all scanned copies need to be grey scale or black and white? The website has mentioned to keep it lower than 6MB and not colour. However i realised that scanned black and white referee forms aren’t clear enough. All my coloured scanned copies are lower than 6MB. Will it be a problem?

[@TheWooloffs]

Hello. I think the grey scale or black and white are only suggestions to ensure the file is lower than 6MB. You can still submit coloured copies as long as file size is lower than 6MB.
