In today’s video, we’re going to talk about Indefinite Leave to Remain – otherwise known as ILR.
This is a status of immigration where you have been in the UK for a number of years and wish to settle.
ILR gives successful applicants the right to live, work, and study in the UK for as long as they wish.
Am I eligible for a UK Biometric Residence Permit (BRP)?
In today’s video, we’re going to talk about Biometric Residence Permits – otherwise known as BRPs.
A BRP is an identity card. It is evidence of the holder’s right to stay in the UK and notes any conditions.
You’ll usually get a BRP if you apply to stay in the UK for longer than 6 months; apply for settlement in the UK; transfer your visa to a new passport; or apply for certain Home Office travel documents, such as the Refugee Travel Document.
Why does my BRP expire on 31 December 2024?
Since January 2020, the UK Government has been issuing Biometric Residence Permits (also known as a BRP card) with an expiry date of 31 December 2024. This is due to a changeover to move immigration documents online. In this blog we guide you through what is happening, when, and what it means for you.
