The NHS have to tell UKVI of NHS debt of £500 and over. Why didn't she use her travel insurance to pay?spreekhan wrote: ↑Wed May 24, 2023 3:41 pmI have a question for a friend: His mother came to visit him in UK from Canada on visit visa in Pakistani passport 4 years ago and got hospitalised in NHS. NHS send her a bill of c£11K to his mother which she did not pay due to affordability. She is now planning to come to UK again but this time on Canadian passport as she now got Canadian nationality. My question is will she be questioned and/or denied entry to UK at the airport as i am told NHS does send this information to immigration? What are the options she have now as she still cannot pay such huge amount and is 75 years old. Many thanks in advance for serious comments.
I read in one of the NHS guidances, that the Home Office is advised of the NHS debt and they use the advance passenger flight details to be there to meet them when they arrive back in the UK.secret.simon wrote: ↑Wed May 24, 2023 5:34 pmCanadian passport holders can use the E-gates and not even interact with Border Force officials, unless her Canadian passport is placed on a blocked list or the passport RFID chip is not working.
You must only consider refusing an application for entry clearance, permission to enter or permission to stay on the basis of NHS debt if the NHS debt information has been supplied or confirmed by an NHS body. For an NHS debt to appear on an applicant’s immigration record, the NHS body must have reported the debt to the Home Office through the monthly return.
Where there is an NHS debt, the individual’s biographical details, amount owed, and the NHS body or bodies to whom the debt is owed will be shown on the Home Office System.
https://assets.publishing.service.gov.u ... he_NHS.pdfWhen an NHS body has notified the Home Office that an individual is the subject of an NHS Debt, this will be recorded on Atlas by Interventions, Sanctions and Compliance by creating an NHS Debtor case card. The NHS Debtor case card is visible on the Atlas Person Summary View and will contain information relating to the NHS debt, including the amount owed and the NHS body where the debt was incurred.
MO, if a repayment plan is in place and being adhered to, it looks better than leaving things to chance
4 years ago you were asking about how your mother could visit the UK and if she could get free treatment for her kidney failure while she was in the UK.
