The BRP is invalid now. You cannot use that to travel.Nerazzuri wrote: ↑Sun May 19, 2019 11:17 amWhat can one do in this scenario:
You've just had your citizenship ceremony, but you now have to travel within 5 days (not enough time for your new British Passport to get back to you based on normal application timescales) and whilst you've applied for a passport online, you've not sent in your supporting document (citizenship certificate and foreign passport) yet. You still have your BRP card, but you've been told to destroy that immediately and return it to UKVI.
Is it possible to call up HMPO to ask for an emergency passport appointment?
Is it possible to travel whilst holding the old BRP with an intention to destroy and return it in 2 weeks time?
No. I'm not aware that was possible.Casa wrote: ↑Sun May 19, 2019 1:00 pmAlso there is no 'fast track' option when applying for a first British passport. Regarding timescale:
"It should take around 6 weeks to get your first UK adult passport, but it can take longer"
Did you submit your online application before you attended your citizenship ceremony
No it is not!!
No, as CR001 has confirmed. My question was to clarify that you hadn't applied before you qualified.
I assumed OP has not submitted documents yet..if this is incorrect then apologies.
