Does UKVI check other countries visa details on your old passport?
So I have just applied for a UK visa.
I submitted my old passports as well as my current passport. Does UKVI actually look at every little detail in old passports and visa details from other countries or do they just concentrate on current passport? On on of my old passport is an Australia visa that has ceased long time ago which I have an some issues with. Will UKVI look into that and question it?
Cheers

In coming to a decision, all factors are evaluated as to how an applicant meets visa eligibility criteria. Those include all travel and immigration history, both beneficial and unfavorable.
From what you discuss in your earlier question, what occurred nearly 10 years ago is no longer an issue. Australia has seen fit to grant you subsequent visas, including a current long-term visa.
With such a positive record, UKVI may not even view it as a factor at this point; should it arise, you just explain the circumstances.
