I was never prompted to pay IHS fees during my phase 2 application. I expected to pay these IHS fees through Worldpay when finalizing my Phase 2 application but was only charged visa fees. Can someone advise me on how to pay for these fees?
I completed my in-person biometrics today where I thought they might ask for IHS fees to finalize my application but didn’t receive any guidance from them.
I have the money ready to wire, just not sure where, how to send it. I still have a year of paid for IHS fees from a skilled worker dependent visa so maybe this explains it but I know UKVI wants their money so not sure this would matter.
For the benefit of the group… I received two emails, one from “home.office.atlas” and another from “uk.visas.and.immigration.home.office” stating that I hadn’t paid my NHS IHS fee. I paid the NHS fee that same day and sent my payment confirmation to “workflowwns@homeoffice.gov.uk”. Home office approved my global talent visa the next day. We are awaiting BRPs which should arrive in 10ish days. Here was my timeline:
Applied for phase 2: 10 Sep
Biometrics: 14 Sep
Request for IHS NHS: 3 Oct
Phase 2 approval: 4 Oct
Home office’s original estimate of approving phase 2: 5 Nov
