[Aownnaqvi]

Hi all
I got settled status 08 June 2021, I'm going to apply Citizenship this year on 08 June 2022, my previous brp is valid until April 2023, my question is do I need to get new brp replacement before applying citizenship or I can go with old one

What you absolutely need, is Settled Status, which by default is digital for everyone.

If you want a physical document that proves that you have that status while you wait for your citizenship (because your employer or landlords struggle to see your digital status online, which sometimes happens) then you can apply to have an updated BRC with the words "Settled Status" on it.

But such a physical document is not necessary to apply for citizenship. The application will ask you details of your current BRC, but you can use the one you have. It will also ask you for details of your Settled Status, and you can give your 16 digit reference number for that.
