Hi,

You applied for an FLR(M) extension in April 2017, when where you granted ILR?


Maybe read this thread, something similar to yours.

From last post on that thread, it may jot be possible depending on circumstances.
These are my 'views' and 'opinions'.
If in doubt always seek professional advice, or at least do a search for the relevant information. :P

If i make any mistakes, You are more than welcome to correct me.

The rules may have been different in the past but I don't think it is possible to get the IHS back now.

You won’t get a refund if:

you’re applying for indefinite leave to remain or changing to another visa where you don’t need to pay the IHS

oh man such a shame. I am not sure when have they change the rules, as by the looks of it members on this forum have received a refund.

Do you think its worth a try?

Thanks
