education certificates UK

Hello guys.

My University have said they do not disclose students results to 3rd parties.

My high school have said that as my exams were over 13 years ago 1995 to be precise they do not have duplicate copies of my certificates.

When the Immigration office calls them they will not get very far.

I do have some certificates but wanted to know what I should do?

cic only needs to confirm whether your certifates are true i think atleast your university will confirm that you were the student there ... thats all CIC want... you better attach all your certificates and degrees leave the rest to CIC...

My friends school and uni were not contacted.
Is this the norm?

i dont think taht each time the univs and schools are contacted it the officers find the documents fine and true they dont recheck them. unless they hav a doubt of fake documents.

I doubt that CIC contacts every school and university that every applicant has attended... and contacted every employer the applicant had in the past ten years. that would be a monstruous job. but maybe that's how it works, maybe that's why it's so slow...

I'm sure they don't contact everybody. My boss when I applied for FSW never mentioned that they had contacted him and my ex-boss who I kept in touch with and was still doing a little work for never mentioned it either. As for the schools, I don't know. Then again, it's a chance you take because they might check it, you never know.
