UKVI access to international databases

Sumsi Timonda made this Freedom of Information request to Home Office This request has been closed to new correspondence. Contact us if you think it should be reopened.

The request was successful.

Dear Home Office,

In response to a FOIR made in February 2018 (case ref 47192 https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/u...), you provided information about international databases that UKVI staff have access to when evaluating visa applications.

Are there now any additional databases that UKVI staff have access to? In your previous response, you did not mention any Irish databases. Do UKVI staff now have access under the 2014 MOU?

Yours faithfully,

Sumsi Timonda

Dear Sumsi Timonda,

 

Please can I ask that you disregard the acknowledgment for FoI case ref
65333 as it has been identified as being a duplicate of another active
request, 65238 (attached). 

 

As a result, FoI case ref 65333 has been cancelled and you should still
expect to receive a full response by 23/08/2021 which is twenty working
days from the date we received your request as per the attached
acknowledgment.

 

Many thanks and apologies for any confusion.

 

Regards,

 

P. Zebedee
