Unfortunately my application didn't start off brilliantly with my application going missing. However after emailing it through last week I called this morning and the we have got a valuation instructed and the documents assessed. 
However I then found this thread and it has me worrying about missing documents such as proof of deposit - We are getting a chunk from my partners father but didn't see a place on the application for this. Therefore I suspect we will be asked and will need to send the deposit form plus bank statements showing this transaction. To pre-empt this request we thought we would get them over to LBS as soon as possible. Those people that were asked for this, did you email them or was it via a branch or in the post? Any advice would be appreciated as I am waking up every day at 4am fretting

Hi, one of the questions we were asked was about a large sum of money that was deposited into my account(this was a holiday refund) but they sent a form for us to sign if it was a gift from anyone. So you may have to wait till they send it to you. But no harm asking. 

We have had our offer but my understanding is whenever you send anything in it then goes to the back of the 10 day Q. I hope it’s all sorted for you soon!

@carlyfluck Did you need to email that back to them or snail mail it back?
The now 12 days queue unfortunately

If you’ve got a gifted deposit, Leeds will send you their own form for you to fill in/your donor to sign. I sent my own gifted deposit letter originally but they wanted their own form signed.

What stampy said. We went through a broker so everything was sent to them.

@stampystamp I have found their form on the website  Did you email it back to them though? I am wondering whether to wait or get it in the mail already - My deposit donor is not particularly tech savvy and lives miles away so I want to try and be ahead of the game rather than additionally delayed

I went through a broker so I sent the form to them who then sent it to Leeds. If you are going direct (not using a broker) I would personally send it before being asked just so you can get a head start, I would also print two forms off (or more than 2) and get them signed in the event one gets lost (or they ask for another) and then you don’t have to worry about sorting another signed later on.

Does that mean we going up to 12 days waiting too? Or because we was already in queue do we still wait 10 working days?

I'm unsure, when I phoned leeds friday they dint even realise that they had a document my broker sent to them 2 weeks ago. Unsure what's going on really.

I am not sure either however I know last time it went up from 5 days to 10 days the day after I submitted the requested documents and I still had to wait 10 days.  But that could just be because as it says it doesn’t count day of receipt so by the time they had received it it was 10 working days (even though it was by email 👀).

Ooh wow they did even no they had documents of yours! God knows what’s happening at the moment! 

I just checked and it’s gone back down to 10 working days so maybe they are catching up now. 

I am going out my mind and my broker isn’t emailing me back it’s so annoying I just feel like I am left in the dark.
