Fix "Interactive Form Fields Are Not Allowed" for UK Visas
Learn why UKVI rejects fillable PDFs and how to flatten them instantly for a successful application.
Understanding the Error
UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) systems require static documents for archiving. If your bank statement or application form has clickable fields, it will be rejected to prevent future editing.
How Flattening Works
Flattening is like taking a digital photo of your document. It merges the text you typed with the background page, making it a single, non-editable layer. This satisfies the security requirements of the portal.
