find your acknowledgment letter. the procedure is listed over there

it takes upto 10 working days to recieve back docs.

ukba website on tier 1 psw also lists procedure on how to withdraw.

When did you enrol your biometrics? Has your tier 4/student visa now expired? Have you held £2800 for 90 days?

Thanks for reply. I enrolled my biometric on oct 25 and my tier4 visa expired already. Was wondering if I get any time after withdraw to stay or if everything will b fine and situations won't demand me to go back can I re apply for psw / tier4 at least ???
I have shown required maintainance funds from my home country, while I applied for psw.

If you gave biometrics on 24th Oct then you are likely to get a decision soon, if you are not sure if you will need to go back then why are you withdrawing your application?

If you withdraw your appliation then you will have no leave to remain in the UK, meaning that if you make a further tier 4 or PSW application it will be as an overstayer. If you have to apply for PSW from abroad you will need £2800 for 90 days as opposed to £800 for 90 days in country. PSW closes in April so if you don't have £2800 now then it will be too late to reapply from abroad.
