BRP name update

Post by maz776 » Mon Feb 25, 2019 3:39 pm

Hi,

My wife gas recently had her passport updated to show (First name/old surname as middle name and my surname as her surname).

Are we ok to travel as currently her BRP shows her first name and old surname.

Will she have issues entering the UK again? As the name is the same with just my surname as her 3rd name.

Thanks all

Don't risk it... Get it updated.

You must apply for a new BRP straight away if any of these things change: name

You must apply for a new BRP within 3 months. You can be fined up to £1,000 or have your stay shortened if you don’t.
My advice is based on personal research/experience, so pls check relevant UKVI sources.
