Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, with reference to the correspondence from the hon. Member for Liverpool Walton, reference MPAM/0443571/22, what the technical issue is that delayed his constituent's case; and whether this technical issue has affected any other applications made to her Department.
As UK Visas and Immigration have transitioned over to new casework systems, a new interface has been built to complete security checks. During this transition some technical issues have been identified with the return of these checks. This impacts a relatively small proportion of cases, with little impact on overall service standards. A technical solution is in development to resolve this issue, which will be implemented as soon as possible
