Dear all,
i have received the approval letter for tier 1 General on 1st of April alongside with my passport and all supporting documents but have not received BRP yet( today 21st of april). i have contacted the BRP office and they said that they do not have my BRP record. could you plz guide on this as i am very worried.
also in the approval letter it is clearly stated that your application has been approved however in the points breakdown I have only given 30 points instead of 35( i have the uk-based Master degree). do i need to worry? what should do now. plz anyone advice me particularly anyone came across with same situation.

If your application is approved dont worry about the points.
THE BRP will arrive in separate post it will be signed.! Wait for it after the approval date listed on the letter it usually takes between 7 working days to 10 working days, if it hasnt after 10 working days call the UKBA and notthe BRP section

Contact your Local MP and tell him the situation that UKBA is doing this to you.
