Thank you so much dduchess90

Hello

1.It is one month from yesterday since your passport was returned, you have 2weeks left to get your IHS refunded, I would advise to wait it out and contact them from 1st week in April if IHS is not refunded by then.

2. That seems to be the preferred option, ensure the funds are for your study in the UK and not just 28days


3. No, each new application will be assessed separately however, the ECO can refer to your previous history and ask for additional documents

In this case, since you withdrew your application because you didn't have relevant evidence to back up your claim regarding your brother sponsoring you,then they might dig a bit deeper into your origin of funds since you will now be supplying your own bank statement. Be prepared for that


Otherwise it should be fine


Cheers

You would have to call +44 (0)300 790 6268. Have your debit card ready. You would be asked to key in your card details to be allowed to speak to a rep who cannot answer case specific queries. You would be billed GBP2.74 per minute so you have to talk fast and clearly. Good luck

Please UKVI call numbers are not going through, any other ways apart from mail.

Good morning house,

I made a UK Tier 4 Visa Application in December 2022. Had my biometrics on 24th December and paid for priority service.
I used my brother's bank statement as proof of funds and everything else was intact. I indicated in the form that my father was late and that was why my brother is paying for my tuition and upkeep.
On 20th January, 2023, they wrote back and requested my father's Death Certificate and Legal proof that my brother is my legal guardian.
Unfortunately, we didn't file a death certificate when our father died and we were unsure of what legal proof was required to show my brother was taking care of me. On 7th February, I contacted them via call and subsequently via email to withdraw my visa application since I did not have the requested documents and I had ran out of time to report to school. My passport was returned on 14th February without a decision. However today, 14th March I still have not received an IHS refund(This is week 4 of passport return).
1. Do I write to request an IHS refund on withdrawn application? If so, how do I go about it?
2. In submitting a new application after requesting a new CAS, do I just transfer the adequate funds into my own bank account for 28 days and remake my application?
3. Can my visa be refused based on my previous withdrawal?
