UKVI has informed us that on Wednesday 26 August 2026, they will be conducting some essential maintenance work between 21:00 on the 26 August, and 03:00 on the 27 August (UK time). This will affect applications made by Student and Child Student applicants.
During this time, applicants may encounter difficulties with trying to pay their Immigration Health Surcharge fee, progressing their applications, accessing their UKVI accounts, updating their details, and generating share codes.
Due to this scheduled maintenance work, applicants should avoid submitting applications during this window where possible.
