Hi all,

I haven't got yet my application answer but I realised 3 weeks ago that I had a forgotten debt in DWP of £2.800 which I repaid in full on the same day.
Do I have to do anything further about this?
Do you believe this will affect my application?
There have been 83 days since the biometrics.

Thanks!

If you discovered the debt after submitting your application and have now cleared it, I would recommend emailing the Further Nationality Enquiries team to notify them of this new development. In your message, explain that you were unaware of the debt at the time of your application and only recently became aware of it. Attach proof of payment and provide as much information as possible to help them locate your file (e.g. full name, date of birth, Home Office reference number, etc.).

Make sure to clearly state that this is new information and request that it be forwarded to the caseworker handling your application. This is important in case your file has already been assigned, so the caseworker can take the new evidence into account. If the initial checks were done before your payment was made, this might prompt a reassessment with the updated information.

Please note, I do not work for the Home Office, nor am I a legal expert. I’m simply sharing from personal experience. I was in a similar situation and sent an email to that team asking for the information to be passed to my case handler. When I later requested a Subject Access Request (SAR), I saw internal notes showing that the team had received my email and actively alerted the relevant casework unit about the new details I provided.

I hope this is helpful.
