Report an error with your eVisa
Field Seymour Parkes LLP
We provide pragmatic solution driven advice for your business and personal affairs.
The Home Office have launched a new online form for reporting errors on eVisas.
As we have covered in recent articles, the Home Office is currently in the midst of transitioning all Biometric Residence Permit holders to eVisas. As might be expected from such a comprehensive transition affecting hundreds of thousands of people across the UK, that process has not been without some technical hiccups. As a result, many of those who have switched to an eVisa have encountered problems or glitches, including their eVisa having incorrect details.
In response, the Home Office have now launched a new Report an error with your eVisa page, allowing individuals to report if any of their personal details or details relating to their immigration status are listed incorrectly on their eVisa. Further to submitting a report, individuals should be contacted by the Home Office within 10 working days, either to confirm that the error has been corrected or to request further information.
If you would like advice on or support with preparing and submitting a visa application, please get in touch at [email protected] .
We are hosting a live webinar at 10am on Tuesday 12 November, covering some of the important developments in immigration going into 2025, including the transition to eVisas, the changes to Right to Work checks, and the increasing importance of sponsor compliance.
