On my passport, it shows:
Name: Tang Meng Jiao
My passport doesn't give my name in the form of Last Name and First Name. If it were to use the Last Name and First Name format, my Last name is Tang and First Name is Meng Jiao. I have no idea why my country's system arranges the name as such but everyone in my country gets that name arrangement in their passport.
On my BRP, it shows as:
Jiao
Tang Meng
Is this arrangement right? Currently, it is identical to my passport though it gets the last name and first name arrangement wrong.
Biometric residence permits wrote:What must you do when you receive your biometric residence permit?
When you receive your permit, we advise you to make a photocopy of the front and back of it, in case it is lost or stolen. If you want to make another application in the future, you will need to send your permit to the UK Border Agency, so you may want to retain a copy for your records.
You must check your permit carefully when you receive it, to ensure that all the details on it are correct. If you find a mistake, you must email BRPError@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk within 10 working days of the date when you received the permit, otherwise you may be charged for a replacement and will need to apply for a replacement permit. In your email you should state:
your full name;
your date of birth;
your nationality;
your passport number;
your biometric residence permit reference number;
your case reference number;
a contact telephone number; and
what exactly is wrong with the permit.
If you do not provide all this information, there may be a delay in answering your query.
