Is it OK to use staples to connect a long supporting document together (like a lease or a full copy set of a passport?)

They also recommend no sending legal formats at all (oversized documentation) but we sent a lease like this as we just folded the edge in and fastened it that way with a clip.. Have it copied to letter size if you can, and as mentioned use clips.

They don't like to do that.  The folders for the documentation is a legal size, 11x8.5 with ACCO (double hole) punch at the top on both sides.  I saw mine at my interview and it contained all my info that I've sent.

Did they put it in ACCO fasteners or did you use those before sending?

The folder they have use them.  That's why we suggest on VJ to put in the two hole punch at the top if you do anything other than paperclips or binder clips.
