Re: Query: UK entry after Tier 2 visa approval

Thanks much.
Will the BRP be ready before expiry of the vignette, if I travel towards the end of the vignette? I am not aware whether there is any relation between actual UK travel date and BRP processing, so this question.

Not to scare you, but to prepare you for every possibility. I have been waiting for 4 completed weeks( 20 working days) after biometrics. Patience is a true virtue when dealing with UKVI
Thanks, for sharing your case. It's been a long wait for you. Hope you get the good news soon.

You can download it if you want. However, VFS takes care of that. They charge INR 250 for document scanning assistance, and this service is included in that.
