@Suzy *******

Yes, sent it first class recorded. No big deal, not expensive.

I just sent a copy of the page of the passport that states I am a resident. That was acceptable.

I suggest it's pointless to go to the Embassy, you would have to take originals of virtually all your previously uploaded documents and then return to collect the visa a couple of days later. Much easier to do it by post as you only need to send passport, bar code, return address and £10 cash, unless they have changed the rules since last week.

If you cannot see the email or attachments, maybe because it's a weekend?

No. It should already be there.

@Michael *******

You should now get an email with receipt, barcode etc. Print off the barcode attachment and follow the instructions. Alternatively you can click on the attachments to the right of the status 'paid fee' and print those.

I had the same. Just go to home page and check status. Worked for me...

Just received my new O-A visa by post. Took just 4 days even with the request for additional docs.

@Ron ******

No. They did not require bank statements, just pension statements. Anyway, all sorted now.

@Ron ******

Just received the following email from the London Embassy:

"Dear Sir/Madam,

Received. We will proceed your visa.

Kind Regards,

Visa Officer"

Mission accomplished 😎
