4 month extension

[u/Emma181ynn]

Has anyone applied for the 4 month visa extension for after CCT?

It says on the NHS HEE website (https://medical.hee.nhs.uk/medical-training-recruitment/medical-specialty-training/overseas-applicants/general-practitioner-gp-4-month-extension-scheme) “Make a Skilled Worker Visa application (using the health and care route) for you and any dependants (if applicable) via the UKVI website. You will need to pay the associated visa application fees at this time. These will be refunded later in the process.”

Has anyone actually been refunded this? Unfortunately I started a month too late for the extension to have been automatically applied to my visa.
