Cancellations, refunds and complaints

If you’re unable to attend your test, you can rearrange it or cancel it.

You’ll get a refund if you cancel your test at least 3 days (72 hours) before you’re due to take the test. You will not get a refund if you cancel or rearrange within 3 days of your test.

Cancel your test

  1. Sign into your Life in the UK account.

  2. Select ‘Confirmed tests’.

If you’re eligible for a refund due to cancellation, the £50 fee will be refunded to the card you used to book the test. You do not need to contact UK Visas and Immigration.

You can then book a test on another date.
