Cancelling / Withdrawing EEA (QP) Online Application
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2018 11:05 pm
Hi,
My husband (EU citizen) and I (non-EEA spouse) applied a few days ago online through the EEA (QP) application, where he was the main applicant and he added me onto his application as a family member. I realize that we answered one section incorrectly: when asked about previous BRPs issued for me. We were all set to go through the European Passport Return Service today, but caught our mistake before we went. We decided to cancel/withdraw our application (through this link: https://eforms.homeoffice.gov.uk/outrea ... ments.ofml), but have not yet received a confirmation of cancellation.
Does anyone know how long it typically takes for them to accept our withdrawal?
We'd like to submit a fresh application as soon as possible, but don't know if we have to wait until we get a confirmation that our old application has been cancelled before starting a new one. Thankfully, we have not submitted any of our documents or paid for the biometrics or EPRS yet, so it would just be the initial application fee that we are forfeiting.
I've searched everywhere online but can't find any timelines or threads asking about this, apart from the automatic rejection if docs aren't submitted within 10 days. Thanks in advance -- any insight would be much appreciated!
Cheers,
Erica
