IHS Refunded partially

Post by imme-123 » Thu Oct 26, 2017 4:57 am

IHS refunded but did not hear back from Home Office. Do i need to contact Home office, as according to website the IHS is refunded only when the decision has been made.

For how long you haven't heard from them ? When your IHS was refunded ?The status of application is still "Awaiting decision" ?

IHS refund doesn't mean anything, I have been refunded on 24th August and still no correspondence from HO. Its blessing in disguise in sort, when did you apply for your extension? Thanks

IHS partial refund on 24 August 2017. :shock: That is a long wait, Have you contacted HO after?

I am curious. Its most likely case has been overlooked. This does not make any sense why would they do partial refund without processing the application. I guess this is very rare to get partial refund before decision. Should we contact HO and refer to partial refund paragraph. Partial refund does not mean anything but they say on gov website it happens when they have processed the application.

I applied on 18 March 2017.

Yes contacted them so many times even involved MP, but still no luck. No sure why, but this is not good thing to get before the decisioin. So fingers crossed and hope for the best :wink:

As discussed numerous times, wait to hear back from HO via post :!:
