Request your personal data from UK Visas and Immigration The Data Protection Act 1998 determines how we process personal data (information relating to living people). The act means you can ask to access the information we hold about you. These requests are called subject access requests. You should expect a response from us within 40 days. Make a subject access request Anyone can make an subject access request for information that we hold about them. You should read the guidance notes at the end of the form before making a request. To make an subject access request, you should provide: a valid cheque or postal order for £10, payable to ‘the Home Office Accounting Officer’ enough personal information to identify you, like a copy of your passport or driver’s licence, original utility bills and your Home Office reference number if you have one an original, signed authority from the person you’re applying for if you’re applying for someone else - we can’t accept copies If you’re applying for a child who is under 12 years old, you don’t need to provide a signed authority. Instead you should provide evidence that you’re the legal guardian of the child. If you don’t provide these, we’ll reject your application and return it with a letter telling you what is missing. Your request won’t be processed. You should make a separate application for each person making a request. Each request should include the fee, identification and authority. Please send your subject access request to: Subject Access Request Unit UK Visas and Immigration Lunar House 40 Wellesley Road Croydon CR9 2BY https://gov.uk/government/publications/requests-for-personal-data-uk-visas-and-immigration
