Subject: Urgent Clarification Request – HWF Reference Reapplication Triggered by Filing Rejection

From: Waseem Malik Ref: RCJ-7 / Confirmation No: 1925841753458531361

Dear Fees Office,

I am writing in connection with a Help with Fees (HWF) application that accompanied my recent submission to the Royal Courts of Justice, confirmation number 1925841753458531361, originally filed on 25 July 2025 at 16:50.

I have now received a rejection notice from the Clerk (Isabella Chulu, dated 28 July 2025) stating that the HWF application cannot be processed via E-Filing and that I must reapply through the online portal.

Please note:

• My EX160 application and supporting documents were submitted correctly in accordance with procedural guidance.
• The rejection implies a fee was paid, which is inconsistent with my remission claim, prompting concern over a potential false fee allocation.
• I am seeking clarification on the status of my original HWF application, and whether this reapplication request is procedurally valid under CPR Part 3 and Part 5.

To facilitate prompt review, I have attached the following:

1. Copy of my EX160 form
2. Claim form submitted via CE-File
3. Clerk’s rejection notice (RCJ-7)

Kindly confirm:

• Whether my initial HWF application is being processed or has been invalidated.
• If I must reapply, whether previously submitted documentation will be considered.
• The timeline and method for issuing any refund if payment was erroneously processed.

This matter requires urgent resolution to avoid judicial delay. Please acknowledge receipt and confirm next steps.

Yours faithfully,
