Short answer
Immigration biometric reschedule enquiries should identify the application route, UAN, biometric instruction, original appointment, reschedule request, upload receipts, missed-slot reason, UKVI or appointment-provider messages, status expiry and any complaint or withdrawal risk. Legal4U cannot make UKVI accept a late biometric appointment.
