We are writing to you as we received your UK Visa and Immigration (UKVI) application between 1 July – 31 July 2020 and you could not book a UKVCAS appointment due to the impact of COVID-19.
UKVI have confirmed to UKVCAS that you are not eligible for the new biometric reuse option so you must book an appointment to complete your visa application.
We are delighted to say you can now book an appointment so we can process and submit your supporting evidence as part of your visa application.
You can now access our booking system and book a date and time that works for you from a mix of free and chargeable appointments.
All our service points are clean and safe with social distancing precautions built in, so you don’t have to worry when you attend an appointment.
Our priority remains the safety of customers and staff to ensure we deliver an effective service that meets public health guidelines. Although some sites have not yet re-opened after the COVID-19 lockdown, more locations and appointments are now available.
Please check the latest list of Service Points and opening dates, which is available on the UKVCAS website here.
