The form is designed to guide users as to the types of cases that are ordinarily considered suitable for an expedited decision, broken down by visa type. Documentary evidence can be directly uploaded when using the form however representatives should also provide a statement detailing why they consider the case suitable for an expedited decision. 

The withdrawal form can be accessed on this web page.
