I would be eligible in the end of January 2020 after completing 12 months on ILR but started the online application process earlier to pre fill th...

Thanks Seagul. Yes it is unbelievable for me too that they are indeed refunding. I think now I trust home office a bit more and possibly solicitor fees were my choice so I may not go for a review as you suggested. But all of those who think that there were genuine mistakes in their application can f...

Thanks Seagul. Received an email just now as well saying that in their upload portal they cant find the slips however they were ticked in the checklist so it seems like a scanning error. we apologize and would refund you the cost of visa in 28 days. We are now closing your complaint but if you are u...
