Subject Access Request (SAR) Timeline and Questions

[VinGam]

Hi,

I have created this topic in order to address a lack of documentation on how to fill a Subject Access Request form.

This is the related page where you can download the form https://www.gov.uk/government/publicati ... mmigration

Anyone can make an subject access request for information that we hold about them. You should read the guidance notes at the end of the form before making a request.

To make an subject access request, you should provide:

a valid cheque or postal order for £10, payable to ‘the Home Office Accounting Officer’
enough personal information to identify you, like a copy of your passport or driver’s licence, original utility bills and your Home Office reference number if you have one
an original, signed authority from the person you’re applying for if you’re applying for someone else - we can’t accept copies
If you’re applying for a child who is under 12 years old, you don’t need to provide a signed authority. Instead you should provide evidence that you’re the legal guardian of the child.

If you don’t provide these, we’ll reject your application and return it with a letter telling you what is missing. Your request won’t be processed.

You should make a separate application for each person making a request. Each request should include the fee, identification and authority.

Please send your subject access request to:
