Standard visitor visa with sponsor’s old Biometric (asILR approved awaiting BRP

[Sai0055]

Hi Board members,

Need your suggestions and guidance on standard Visitor visa for my parents.

I have recently submitted visitor visa application for my parents with all my details(invitation, BRP, payslips, statements,etc;). Their appointment for submitting documents is on Wednesday I.e 6/12/2017.

But I applied for my ILR last week and got approved. I am now waiting for my new biometric card.

My question is Do they need to submit my biometric?

If so can they apply/submit application with my old biometric card?

I have confirmation letter from HO stating that my ILR is approved. So can I just ask them to submit my old BRP along with the ILR letter received on Friday.

Please can anyone guide me on the above ASAP.
Thanks everyone in advance.

They are not required to submit your original BRP in the first place, only copy needed. (Certified if possible). Also, how can you still have old BRP when you have applied for ILR & are approved? You are or were supposed to surrender it. You can, however, use the letter but note that it does not confirm that ILR is granted. It only states that BRP will be arriving soon.

Hi Bruteforce thanks for reply.

I mean they are submitting copy of my old BRP card along with their application.

I already surrendered my old BRP and awaiting for the new one.

So do they need to enclose copy of my leave to remain in UK?

Ideally you should include proof of your residence status as with HO you never know. They can refuse for any reason and also there is no right of appeal on standard visitor visa.
