Hi, thanks so much for the help, i was just wondering would i need to inform the Home office that i received a new BRP and that the old BRP information i put down on my citizenship application is now out of date?contorted_svy wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 4:01 pmPhysical BRPs are being phased out - I don't know what the procedure is for proving your status online if you have a BRP already/if it has expired. Even if you did apply for renewal it wouldn't affect your citizenship application, and you can travel before receiving the outcome, no problem.

Therefore i'm thinking of renewing my BRP while in the background my citizenship application is being processed. I have several questions:
1) would my application for BRP be rejected since i've already applied for citizenship? No
2) How long the application for BRP would take ??? it seems standard time frame is 6 months but can't comment on actual processing times.
3) IF i receive a new valid BRP would that mess up my old citizenship application? do i need to inform the home office of my new BRP details? No - your nat. application is based on the facts submitted when you applied.
4) would leaving the country for holiday before citizenship comes through, would that affect my citizenship application No - nat. is not an immigration application!
Any help or advice is much appreciated, thanks
Not really sure what I can answer here - calling UKVI is generally useless, the call agents are not UKVI case workers, they are a third party call centre operation which tends to tell you what is publicly available.Nickstar wrote: ↑Sat Apr 13, 2024 7:03 pmhello alterhase58, so sorry to bother again but I'm receiving some very conflicting information on whether i can apply for replacement BRP while my citizenship is being decided. on the one hand when i called UKVI, they stated that i cannot apply for BRP after my citizenship application as the two processes cannot be performed simultaneously, while on the other hand i have people on this forum telling me i can. I'm just wondering how you got the information that BRP and citizenship are seperate applications so i can have a look at it myself. Thank you so much
