Hi everyone, does anyone know if we could travel back to our home counties while waiting for the new brc to arrive?
I am from Turkey. I have given my biometrics on the 12th of March. I didn't receive an apad email. I sent them an email last week. No response .
Can it take more than 3 months or more for the new card to arrive?
My EEU BRC card will expire on the 25th of May. My pre settled status is till 2024.
Can we still travel back with an expired brc ? I have my pre settlement status online which gives me a code to prove my status.

If anyone have an opinion. Please share.
Thanks

Hi everyone,
l just received an email from apad that my card is on the way! But they want me to send back the old brc.
Does anyone received the same email and should we bother to send the old one back? Could we just cut it in half? There is no return address on the email as well so l am a bit confused..

Thanks
Serife

Hi everyone,
What happens if l am not at home when my new brc arrives? Could someone else take the letter on my behalf?

Thanks
Serife

Hi,

Best to travel with valid documents. Foreigner expected to have valid resident permit and passport for travel. You can travel with old BRC and return before 30/06/21 as long as valid. You could face trouble at boarding back to the UK.
If you want to travel and return after June 30 and not wait for new card, may need to head to British embassy in home country for one way valid resident permit and then pay another fee once back in UK for new card as might then impact card application.

Thank you very much, how did you get the tracking details of the parcel please? Was it in the email from the HO or you provided your personal details to TNT and they were able to find your parcel?
They are able to find just with the post code and your name. Once they find it they will confirm few details with you to make sure its the correct one. First they will search it in the first new delivery list and then they will try searching through the redelivery list.
Thank you this infos might very useful as I’m still waiting for the email and delivery !
Last question sorry, when they rearranged a redelivery, did they provide you a specific day and time?

Many thanks 👍
Yes. They will ask you and then they will put that in the system if you call them. otherwise you can do it yourself on their tracking website once you have the consignment number.
Hi pls can you share tnt contact number?

Just got an email from APAD that they are posting my card. No prior email for me to consent to forfeiting my BRC under EEA rules like others. Strange.

Biometric appointment: 22/03/2021
Decision letter received: 04/05/2021
New BRC received: ?

My card expires 08/2023

Good luck everyone 🙏🏾

Is anyone managing to get biometric appointment these days for EU BRC replacements. Currently the message below is on UKVCAS. There are no appointments available.

"Biometric Residency Permit/Card (BRP/BRC) Replacement applications
The recent surge in demand for replacement Biometric Resident Permits (BRP) and Biometric Residence Cards (BRC) has impacted UKVCAS appointment availability. To support our customers and address demand for appointments, from the evening of 22 April 2021, UKVI has decided to invite some BRP/BRC replacement customers to apply via the IDV app.

Once you have submitted your BRP/BRC replacement application, UKVI will assess whether your application can be progressed using the IDV app.

This means that you will NOT be able to book a UKVCAS appointment immediately
UKVI aim to carry out this assessment process within a few weeks from registration with UKVCAS/UKVI
UKVI will then ask UKVCAS to email customers with next steps.

Look out for an email sent to your registered UKVCAS email address called:

Book your UKVCAS appointment now or
Download the IDV app now"

I thought this had been ongoing for a while but this is the first I have seen this. I was hoping mine would fall under this category when I was applying but I had to have a proper appointment. This was back in February and I knew this notice then so has been in place a good couple of months now.

Hi, I applied for the card change 2 days ago. As I already have a BRC which is not valid I don’t need to have a biometric appointment, they just use my previous BRC data. I was granted permission to use the app, I submitted all the documents and now waiting for the decision
