IHS refund for NHS doctor

Post by drshashi » Sun Jan 03, 2021 9:20 pm

Hey all, earlier this year, Boris Johnson had announced that health care workers will be provided with IHS refund, and had asked to email them for the same.
I am a Doctor in NHS working on frontline, on a Tier 2 General visa since 3 years. I submitted multiple emails with my details and all payslips showing the proof of my work.
I haven't received any reply from them in the last 2 months. Has anyone got any insight into the same.

Thanks

Did you apply online as the link below states?? Or just email??

https://www.gov.uk/apply-immigration-he ... rge-refund

Refunds are also only from 31st march 2020, not what has been paid prior to this. You only get 6 months back at a time and have to apply every 6 months.

Yes I used the link and I understand that you are paid just for 6months, but I haven't received any reply from them. As I am on a Tier2 general visa, it asks to email them.
I will try calling them again tomorrow.
I wanted to know if someone actually received any refunds.

Thanks
