….Despite the fact I’ve worked for them for nearly 8 years!
Apparently it’s a new-ish legislation (Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Act 2006) and to proove I’m not illegal they want ‘an excellant quality’ photocopy or scan of my passport.
Or a combination of other documnets such as P45, P60, Birth Certificate or National Insurance Card.
Now, I’m not usually one for being bothered about private info being stored, but forgive me, I don’t really want copies of my Passport hanging about, and I’m not keen on copying my Birth Certificate either.
What’s this about? Can I avoid it? Should I tell them to poke it? Is it all OK?
