Further to the below update shared in June, we can now confirm the following: As of 6 August, all BRP card holders are now able to create a UKVI account and complete the eVisa process. This must be done by 31 December 2024. Users are able to access their UKVI account and manage their personal information. UK/Irish nationals, as well as those who already have a UKVI account, do not need to do anything. The 3-Step eVisa Process: o  Create a UKVI account. o  Identity – Upload a copy of your passport or BRP, and take a real-time picture of your face. o  Link your account to eVisa and then click ‘Submit’: eVisa will then be linked to your passport. Once the process has been completed, within a few days, you will receive an email from the Home Office confirming that your eVisa is now linked to your passport, making international travel easier. Managing your UKVI Account: It is extremely important that you keep the below personal details up to date within your UKVI account: o  Passport details, including renewal status and if your passport has been lost/stolen o  Dual nationality, if applicable o  Home address Keeping these details up to date will help with travel and Right to Work/Rent checks. If your details are not up to date, you may face delays at the border. Travelling: Key points to note: o  You can continue to travel with a valid BRP Card until it expires on 31 December 2024. o  Airlines and other carriers will be able to digitally check your immigration status via your passport. o  Before you travel, check your UKVI account: make sure that your personal details are up to date and that your eVisa is linked. #eVisa #UKVIAccount #BRPCard #UKImmigration #ImmigrationUpdate
