Home Office reinstates Priority Services

Following a five month suspension, the UK Visa & Immigration department of the Home Office reinstated its Priority Services from 12 August 2022. This applies for new customers applying in the sponsored work routes, including global talent, and for students in existing locations.

Currently, the Priority Services do not include the visa routes of Innovator, Start-up, High Potential Individual or Family applications.

Stone King Partner Julie Moktadir, Head of Faith Sector and Immigration team, said: “This will be a relief to many who need a faster decision on their visa application but it is worth noting that the Priority and Super Priority services may not be available in all locations, and it is advised that you check the availability of the services at your relevant visa application centre.
