How to ask for refund from Home Office?

[Sha2019]

Hi All

I have recently been granted ILR. I had an undecided application in the past when I had varied to a different visa category. I had paid visa fees for the undecided application.

Could you please tell me where to contact to ask for the refund? I have sent a letter to Charging Team, S3 8WA. But, its been a quite a while have not heard anything.

I have been told by one of my friend to email it to this address for a response: complaints@homeoffice.gov.uk

Is there any other way to escalate to issue the refund?

Thanks

Refunds are often issued automatically. You can email and see what happens

You will not get a refund if:

your visa application is successful but you do not come to the UK
you leave the UK before your visa ends, for example to make a new application
you’re told to leave the UK before your visa expires
you’re applying for indefinite leave to remain or changing to another visa where you do not need to pay the IHS
