Needtoknow Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I have been asked to send certified copies of docs to immi account. Who can certify them in the UK please? Does it have to be a notary public or can it be any solicitor or another profession certifying them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferrets Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 The rules have changed so if you can colour scan originals then that will do without need for certification. Best of luck Ferrets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Needtoknow Posted May 17, 2016 Author Share Posted May 17, 2016 Thanks, but the letter that has been sent states that they must be certified?

Fisher1 Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 We took ours to the local law court and someone there did it for us. Best telephone first though, this was some time ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferrets Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Thanks, but the letter that has been sent states that they must be certified? Are you uploading or sending by post? For uploading I did mine in January without certification as a colour scan and that worked fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bungo Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Are you uploading or sending by post?

Immigration just hasn't ipdated all their text on websites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukescotty Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 I really advise that you don't go to any solicitor to get them to sign it, get it done at Australia house in London, After talking to someone there, if immi can't find that solicitor on the list, it's going to get rejected straight up, and I'm pretty sure They have to be registered on the Australian list.

No need to do anything. Colour scans are fine. Colour scans have been fine for many years and thousands of people have done that. Visas do not get rejected because a solicitor is not on the list, not least because it is unnecessary anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukescotty Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Aghh I've read the thread wrong, thought they was on about witness signing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
