I stress again that if he has ILR status, the ECS checks MUST return a positive notice and he should not have any issues to start work.3. A Positive Verification Notice issued by the Home Office Employer Checking Service to the employer or prospective employer, which indicates that the named person may stay in the UK and is permitted to do the work in question
Can anyone answer my question please it’s urgent You said scan and upload documents. Did they keep the expired passport containing ILR or they just scanned it and allow you to take it home?? Need to know as my husband is I the same position now and we’ve booked holiday for December already and his workplace just told him about BRO today 16th August 2019Izzybee123 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 26, 2019 4:03 pmI am really hoping someone has some advice or maybe has experienced something similar. I am writing this on behalf of my partner who is South African and lived in this country since he was 2 and has had full education here and never left the country. This past year he has looked for work after completing his education and managed to secure an apprenticeship as a maintenance engineer with a large company. Everything was going well into a few of months of working there he was pulled in to HR to be told he may not be able to work there as they have doubts about his validity to be able to work in the country as his indefinite leave to remain visa is in an out of date passport. As a result he had a meeting a week later to confirm that he can no longer work there and they have to terminate his contract. The worst part of it is he is only 18 and had no idea that he would require this to be able to work in the country he grew up in, he was never told he would need it when he recieved his national insurance number nor was there any official warning/indication that he would need it. However, as they were impressed with his work they said they would hold his job position for 6 months while he waits for a BRP which he can take for them to write up a new contract. He applied for a BRP 5 weeks ago today and it cost about £300. He had his appointment to upload documents and take finger prints to be sent to the home office where he hoped to be able to get answers to some of his questions only to be told that she knows absolutely nothing about the process (this appointment cost £60). This is a very stressful and scary time for us as there is no way of tracking the progress as when you ring the home office they day they cannot disclose the status of the application because they don't have access. Frankly I feel this is wrong as our lives and future are in turmoil with him not being able to do anything about it other than wait. I suppose my main question is for a bit of piece of mind, how long realistically can it take? Has anyone been in a similar position or can explain how you're supposed to know you require this BRP to work if you're not told or made aware at any point in your life growing up here as a non EU national. We are really hoping it arrives around week 8 or he at least hears from the home office around this point as he has heard this tends to be how long it takes on average.
The ukcvas centres DO NOT keep original documents, whether expired or not.Tash92 wrote: ↑Fri Aug 16, 2019 4:54 pmCan anyone answer my question please it’s urgent You said scan and upload documents.

ILR stickers often have expiry date. While ILR status does not expire, the ILR expiry date on the passport may create issues with boarding planes as airlines do not often allow it. This is important if you are a visa national for travel
