IHS refund

Post by snober » Thu Jan 29, 2026 6:28 pm

Hi everyone, I need some guidance regarding my IHS refund.

I originally paid my IHS while I was in Pakistan, using my Pakistani credit card. Before leaving Pakistan in 2023, I closed that credit card.

I have now switched my visa from Skilled Worker to Global Talent, and I recently received an email confirming that I am eligible for a one‑year IHS refund. Since the credit card I used is no longer active, I’m unsure how the refund can be transferred to my UK bank account.

Has anyone been in a similar situation or knows the correct process to get the refund paid into a UK account?

Any advice would be really appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
