Hello,

Thanks for reading!!

I am on a Tier 2 General Visa which will be expiring on 14th July 2020 and I have qualified and submitted an ILR application on 22nd April 2020. Due to COVID 19, I am unable to get appointments yet.

Here my issue is:My indian passport will expire on 8th August 2020. I have submitted my ILR application with my current passport details. I don't know when I'll get an ILR appointment with UKVI and "Indian high commission uk"  for re-issue of indian passport also closed.

Is it good to apply for re-issue of indian passport now or Is it right way to do both re-issue of passport and ILR application at parallel?

If i apply re-issue of passport now, I'll get new passport number. In this case, if my ILR application is still in progress. is any issue?

Do I face any issue with my ILR application due to the near expiration of indian passport?


Could you guys please suggest what I should do?

Thanks in advance 

You should face no issues. Try to get your passport renewed asap and use that during your appointment. Also, upload a cover letter explaining that you got a new passport. case workers follow common sense

Thank you so much Zimba

Do you have your ILR now or got appointment and done biometrics as from previous post your passport should have expired now.

i got new passport and i have submitted my application via IDV app which is re use of previous biometrics. So no need to book appointment.
