Pip

Hi a quick question about my husband pip claim he recently applied on phone then he has received a letter saying he has to prove his current status of living in the uk has been living and working in the uk since 2010 and been granted indefinite leave to remain by the home office the only problem is the letter states him sending his original documents or go to the job centre plus until end of this month he has been to the local job centre but they said he can’t go in because of the current covid 19 but becouse we only receive letters nearly once every 2 weeks we are very worried to send the original documents too can anyone give any advice please

Hi usually the JC+ would take a copy and send on, but obviously not possible as things are, have you tele PIP and told them this and that you are nervous about sending the original?
Could you perhaps take a copy of the original for your own records and then send them the original?

I think it is worth trying with police station to certify the copies before sending them. What do you think?
Let me know if this idea is worth trying pls

I suggested if you can't get the originals verified at job centre due covid19, you should try get the copies certified at any police station so that you can send them. Hope you get the idea brother.
