[Urgent question] Do I need to re-enter the UK to get my new BRP

Post by zxcasd282 » Sat Sep 28, 2019 2:02 am

Hi all, currently I am holding a tier 4 visa BRP valid until 14oct. And I have got a tier 5 visa starting on the 14oct. Do I need to re-enter the UK to get a stamp on my new visa stick in order to get the new tier 5 BRP in the post office?
Many thanks

Did you apply from abroad for tier 2?

Presumably yes. Your tier 4 would have been cancelled when your tier 2 was granted and you need to enter the UK on your tier 2 visa and get it stamped.

Tier 5 it seems, Char.

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.
