Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many and what proportion of super priority visa applications were processed within five working days in 2022.

The Home Office publishes migration transparency data on the gov.uk website. The latest published data was released on 24 November 2022 and the report covers the period up until end of September 2022.

Historically, we have included performance against customer service standards within the published data up until Quarter 3 of 2021, however due to a technical issue we have been unable to release the 2022 figures. It is our intention to reintroduce these figures as part of future migration transparency data releases now that the technical issue has been resolved.

We are unable to provide data on how much the Home Office has refunded to super priority visa applicants in 2022. The information is held over multiple computer systems and various immigration routes, which would require a manual trawl to obtain and collate into a report, thereby exceeding time/cost limits.
