Hello

I am a new member and have been reading this forum for a very long time. My timeline is as follows: biometric date: 15 july 2015 at lahore. Update email received on : 13th Septmber that the application has been processed. No update has been given since then. I wanted to ask everyone who has got granted and refused did any of you check your IHS? Was the option visible for IHS refund once you received the process email? Or does it dissapear . Please reply

And they have also not returned the original certificate we sent with our application!

Soo annoyed right now!
Sorry to hear that, unfortunately yesterday I got received for same reason as yours. But they returned my documents photocopies including English language documents copies. Normally they keep photocopies but they returned them to me this time.[/quote]

If the IHS refund option stays is that a refusal? And if it dissapears theres more chance of a grant?

Yes according to theory if it stays after 24 hours of official processed email then it's a refusal ..
But if it disappear then u got the visa ..

Just login into the IHS portal and see what it says on the action tab. If it is blank or says refund . Also you dont get bands for ielts if you have submitted ieLts life skills at a1. Its a pass or fail
