Health and Care Worker Visa Delay

Hi Guys,

I applied for health and care worker visa as a doctor within UK 6 months ago. I have had no decision on my visa and every time I contacted UKVI, I was given a generic answer about IT issues and that I should continue to work whilst waiting for my decision. For the last 3 months, even UKVI has stopped replying to my emails. Its now been 6 months and still no answer. I even filed a compliant to UKVI and still received no answer.

Has anyone experience this or has any advise of what to do?

Hi! I'm just wondering if you've heard back at all or if you took any additional steps to escalate this?

I'm in a similar position although I recently got asked to supply additional evidence. Not heard back for 4 weeks now and getting increasingly anxious. I paid for priority.

Better you write an email to UKVINHSTeam@homeoffice.gov.uk.

This email is exclusively for NHS based healthcare visas. They're quick to act. Hope this resolves your issue.
