Lost my indefinite leave to remain abroad

[Kimjungisabigboss]

I have lost my indefinite leave to remain whilst I was abroad and the home office website is not giving me a clear guidance on how I should move.

Could someone break down the costs for getting a replacement?
What documents will I need to get a replacement?
Is it guaranteed that, they will give you a replacement visa?
How long does the process take?

I have checked that. It doesn’t tell me about the costs of getting a replacement? Is my replacement guaranteed if I go down this route?

You should read the information in the link, where all the information is stated!!

If you have not been absent for 2 or more years, there is no reason you won't be successful.

If you’re outside the UK
You must report your lost or stolen BRP outside the UK.

You cannot apply for a replacement BRP outside the UK. Instead, you’ll need to apply for a ‘replacement BRP visa’, which lets you re-enter the UK once only. It costs £154.

You can apply for a replacement BRP when you return to the UK. You must do this within 3 months of reporting it lost or stolen unless you have a good reason, for example you were unable to return to the UK in that time.

If you’ve been away for over 2 years and you’ve lost your documentation proving your right to live in the UK, you can apply for a Returning Resident visa.

Is there any specific documents they require for me to have before I apply?

Please read the link and follow the online process, which will tell you what you need. You must report the bro as lost, to police and ukvi, it contains all your personal information and must be cancelled.

Despite the previously given guidance, I will only add an opinion to not report it lost/stolen precipitately as you might find it later when it could have become void (if already reported).

I’ve checked; and reported it lost and stolen. It doesn’t specify, what documents are needed specifically?
