The Immigration Health Surcharge number is sent to the email address that is provided during the payment process. Customers should ensure that they are receiving information about their application from anybody acting on their behalf, but any customer who requires details of their IHS number can request it via UKVI contact channels.</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 12/02/2019 10:47:34 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/02/2019 answer text <p>The Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS) number is not used by the NHS for administrative purposes and there is no advantage in printing it on the biometric residence permit (BRP).</p><p>Surcharge payers can use their BRP to evidence their status as part of the eligibility checks carried out by the NHS. The Home Office shares data with the NHS in England on those who have paid the surcharge, or who are exempt from doing so and are entitled to free NHS care. It also provides checking services for the NHS in other parts of the UK. These services help the NHS establish whether a patient is chargeable.</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 06/02/2019 16:55:08 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes
