Hello Justwise and other Gurus in the house.Pls its over 28 day that i cancelled my visa application and requested for a refund,up till now i have not gotten a refund from ukv.The only response i got was a mail on 3rd of August acknowledging my request and that i will be notified if my request is successful after that,there has no been any response.Pls,how do i reach them?

I was in your current shoes. First off, I hope you cancelled 5 days (or more) before your initial Biometrics appt day.

I cancelled an applicant's visit visa application on July 27. I counted 28 calendar days from then and no refund. I emailed them through https://contact-ukvi.homeoffice.gov.uk/app/international/payment/language/English . It costs £5.48 to do this and you don't pay for subsequent emails on the same query. They replied next day and requested a few details, like name of applicant, type of visa, amount paid, etc. I provided those and got nothing back. I replied to the same email chain and then they got back and said refunds are within 28 'working' days. Eventually the refund was paid on August 30.

This is to encourage you that refunds take a while. I also tried calling them on 00 44 203 481 1736 but no one answered. This no. costs over £1 per min to call.

Not compulsory.
If you insist you can do it yourself on www.turkishairlines.com
Dont worry about the expiry date of the booking. It doesn't count.

Hello Everyone,

Currently undergoing some background checks from the UK and the process requires me to send

We also require you to provide us with (1) set of rolled fingerprints (can be scanned and emailed to us, do not have to be originals).

Note: Set is required to include all of your biographical data, date fingerprints were taken, and signature of the official taking the fingerprints.

Is this something I'd need to go to Alagbon to get or I can just get any biometric scanner and take it and send. I'm curious because of the way they mentioned "official taking the fingerprints"....

Thanks in anticipation ��

Anyone who applied in March and waiting for their passport to be returned?

Can you track your application to know if it has been transferred to the VAC?

Maybe they have started returning passports too.

Congratulations!!!. Please did u receive a mail from TLS that your visa is ready?
If yes, when?
