Bit complex matter

Post by JasonHastings » Mon Mar 30, 2020 4:22 pm

Hi all
Thanks for the great advise on this forum. I have decided to apply for BC after on ILR since 2010 because children are British citizens and don't want to go back with us. This made us to apply for BC. Could you please answer a couple of questions. Its a bit complex matter now. I am also changing my job now, that needed a BRP, because my ILR is just an old stamp version on the passport. I had to book a paid appointment to get my biometrics done on 21st March at Croydon and filled the Super priority service for BRP which cost me £1048. On 2nd March, I emailed UKVI to WITHDRAW my BRP application so I can apply for BC and money can be used there. But a letter from UKVI arrived on 24th March explaining my refund is on the way, which surprised me because on the website it says no refund available, that's why I went to get my BRP done. Please see the screenshot from UKVI https://www.gov.uk/cancel-visa
You applied in the UK
You need to cancel your application using the online form.
You won’t get your fee refunded if you cancel an application that you made in the UK.


However, I have not received my refund yet. Now whilst filling my AN1 BC form online, I understand I have to book a BRP appointment. Now, do I have to get my BRP again? I don't have BRP yet. I received a text on 21st March evening that my information has been sent to UKVI. Please suggest what to do? I have emailed UKVI to suggest me, which may take more than 1 month at least.

My 2nd query is when I fill the AN1 form- its asking did you apply for a VISA in the UK or overseas? I did apply for a visa overseas first time and on A COUPLE OF OCCASIONS, I also extended visa at the airport by showing a letter from the University, whilst returning ack to UK, instead of submitting a new application at the High Commission. I got all the records on landing cards when I received my SAR. I also got my work permit and applied for FLR 4 times in 2002,03,04,07, please suggest do I need to fill all these info on the BC form. I think they do have all the info, its just a repetition. Apologies its a bit complex. Thanks again Jason
