Quais documentos de suporte devo incluir no meu pedido de visto no Reino Unido?

8

Parece haver um padrão consistente no TSE, com dezenas de perguntas sobre qual a documentação que melhor acompanha um pedido de visto, feita não apenas pelos que se candidataram após uma recusa, mas pelos candidatos iniciantes antes do envio (e alguns com pós-envio) ansiedade).

O que está sendo esquecido, perdido na tradução, perdido? Por que essa pergunta está sendo feita aqui, quando o governo do Reino Unido publica suas próprias informações diretas?
