That's very unusual.

Have they said why they want it, and is there anything that is unusual about you / your application?
I had to do it because my passport was out of date, I also had to end them my son's birth certificate so that they counted me as independent.

That's weird.. you are the only person I've known who has been asked! Did they say why?

No they wanted originals, they sent them back obviously.

Yeah it'd probably be best to call them and confirm it, then I'm sure you'll have no problem sorting it out.
I think perhaps there has been an error somewhere in your application. Perhaps the wrong fee code, or dependency. It's an easy mistake to make.

We seem to be pretty stumped. I'd suggest ringing UCAS to ask
