The Salesforce link is usually in MMB 3 days before departure, but this link may do the trick:
https://iberia.my.site.com/BADigital...ionEmbarque_BA
Enter the details just for the flight that gets you into the USA first port of entry.

Guess I'm the Dummard Who Thought Covid Documention Was Not Needed Between US and UK
We still need what Covid vaccination documentation and testing in order to fly from US to UK and return (and internally between England and Scotland)? Thought I read that only applied if your travel involved China.

OK I even thought I checked this online but perhaps I am wrong. Perhaps I'm just clueless, or just misunderstanding this thread.

Tried to check in online for my Germany-UK-US flights tomorrow.
Realized that I needed to submit the Covid verification documentation even though I’m a US citizen.
The verification came back as completed almost immediately, but when I try to check in online I still can’t get past the Covid verification step. When I click on the documentation verification link and enter the verification number, it states that everything is verified and that I can check in online, but no…
Any trick to get around this?

At this point no, but it's no big deal sorting this out at check-in, it won't take more than a few seconds. Next time, however, if on connections like this, it's best to use the direct Salesforce Iberia link, using only the USA arriving flight, as explained in the main Salesforce / Document upload thread, where this issue gets a regular airing. The MMB version can get the wrong flight information into ADOC

Having done 2 x US trips this year my failure rate on MMB for document uploads is 50%, and I really don't see the point - at the airport check-in staff insisted on seeing paper copies of vaccination status and ESTA anyway. I'd uploaded them for all passengers into MMB.
On the 2nd trip I uploaded valid documents and they were rejected - I didn't bother trying again. Just not worth the trouble - check-in agent insisted on seeing the paper copies anyway and sorted everything out in the same time as the first trip.
