Mistake with Names

I made a mistake along the way with filling in my dad’s full name and now it says he doesn’t match my application for renewing my SFE.

Looking at other replies to the forum we will have to fill in and upload a PFF2, but we are a little unsure of what to fill in.

My mom has already submitted her information online, so will we still have to put her information on the PFF2 or can we just fill in my dad’s information?

You can do either. If you only do your dad make sure you fill in the right column (sponsor 1 or sponsor 2) to match what you put on your application and that you explain in a cover note that the other sponsor details have been provided online.

Hi there,

If your Mother provided details online then it would only be your Father's information on the PFF2 form. Once it's completed you would upload it online and it's 20 working days for processing.

Thanks, Ross
