BRITISH CITIZENSHIP APPLICATION URGENT QUESTION

[Sid ould]

Dear all,

I hope this finds you well,
I am currently applying for my wife's citizenship and I have a question for which I really would like some help if you can.
My wife has had her ILR for some time now (since 2006) and she has it as a vignette in her passport rather than BRP. We are now in the process of completing her application and I came across the question where it says "Are you able to provide a biometric residence permit (BRP) card with this application?". Now the problem is that she has a vignette, and my question becomes; is it ok if I answered yes and then provide the Vignette ref number?

Many thanks in advance for your assistance in this.

Best regards,

Sid

A vignette is not a BRP so answering Yes would be wrong.
HO knows this hence the question "Are you able to provide a biometric residence permit (BRP) card with this application?". If you select No, what is/are the next questions?

[alterhase58]

BRP card is not strictly necessary proof of ILR can be by vignette or the letter granting ILR. No is fine.

Thanks for your reply,
The questions are as follows:

Yes, and it is valid

No, my BRP is lost or stolen

No, I have already sent my BRP to the Home Office

No, I do not have a BRP for my most recent leave

If I selected "No, I do not have a BRP for my most recent leave", the question becomes: Do you have a BRP from a previous stay in the UK? This question is a yes or no, so I obviously selected no.

What do you think of this?

Many thanks once again for your help, much appreciated

Simply answer no as relevant if she does not and has never had a brp. Unsure why you are overthinking this issue.
