Waiting for BRP 7 days now

Post by guliko_kib » Thu Aug 25, 2011 8:43 pm

Hi
I have received the letter which informs me that my application has been approved and BRP will be sent in separate cover. But i have been waiting for it about 7 working days now. (The letter was issued on 17 Aug 2011) Do you think there is a problem about it? I need to travel to Scotland on the 5th of Sept. Can i travel within uk without BRP (i received my passport back already)

Regards

Suthira

By BRP you mean British Passport? If yes, you are clearly British, and need to appreciate that British Citizens are not required to have a British Passport. A passport is only required if foreign travel is contemplated.

A British Citizen is no less British if they do not possess a British passport. So of course travel to any part of the UK is OK.

BPR = Biometric Residence Permit

If you are already in UK you can travel within any of the four countries i.e. England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. There are no borders between them. Just a board along the roadside would welcome you to Scotland.
