Proof of right to work

Post by Helpwithwork » Mon Jul 22, 2019 8:57 pm

Apologies if I am posting in the wrong section.

Some background info- acquired IRL in 2006- stamp is in expired passport.

I recently was given a job offer. The job requires an enhanced DBS check. I was not aware that i require a BRP as my old passport has my IRL stamp. I urgently need proof of my right to work in the UK. I have looked online and i can see that an BRP would cost over £1,000 to be fastracked. Is this my only option?

Thanks for your advice/help.

Thanks for the response. Just wondering how long the BRP takes? Will it really take as long as 6 months?

IF you use super priority service then hopefully within 24 hrs you will get decision followed by 7-10 working days for the arrival of BRP card through DX courier.
