Evidence for parent's divorce?My parents are divorced, on the evidence page it asks me to send them my parent's decree absolute.
What I can't work out for certain though, is whether I need to send an original or a copy?
The directgov pages just list under original documents needed as birth certificates or marriage certificates, so does a decree absolute count under a marriage certificate? Because it doesn't really count as a financial document, right? So I'm assuming they want an original but I don't want to send in an original only to find that a photocopy would suffice.
Just wondering if anyone's been through this before and whether they can reassure me! -

Re: Evidence for parent's divorce?Send them a photocopy of their Decree Absolute. I had to do that when I applied and had no problems with them
Do send it recorded delivery and have a second photocopy just in case they balls something up and you have to send it again!
