Electronic Visas (eVisas): Who is Affected and What Steps to Take Now With the Home Office's plan to replace biometric residence permits (BRPs) with eVisas from 2025, many people will need to take action. eVisas will be a digital record of a person's immigration status, accessible via a UKVI account. This shift affects individuals with physical-only immigration status, those holding both a BRP and an eVisa, and those with an eVisa only. For a smooth transition, it's crucial to understand how to set up and manage your eVisa, ensuring all information is accurate and up to date.

🚨 Important Update for UK Visa Holders 🚨 The UK government is transitioning to a fully digital immigration system by 2025, replacing physical documents with eVisas for improved security and efficiency. The following individuals will be affected: 🛂 If you have a Biometric Residence Permit (BRP) that expires on 31 December 2024, you can now create a UKVI account and access your eVisa. You should do this before the expiry date of your BRP. 🛂 If you have a Biometric Residence Card (BRC) and have been granted status under the EU Settlement Scheme, then you already have an eVisa and do not need to take any action. 🛂 If you have a Biometric Residence Card (BRC) but haven't obtained status under the EU Settlement Scheme or another immigration leave, your BRC is no longer valid—even if still in date. Ensure you secure your immigration status as soon as possible. Need guidance on the transition? Concerned about your immigration status?

The rollout of Evisas has begun. The Home Office is aiming to replace all physical documents with Evisas by 2025. From today, the Home Office will begin to send emails to all those with physical immigration documents, called biometric residence permits (BRPs), inviting them to create a UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) account to access an eVisa. This is digital proof of their immigration status. Find out more about the changes: https://buff.ly/3W4SuaO #HostileOffice #DigitalHostileEnvironment #DigitalBorder

📢 Important Changes to the UK Immigration System The Home Office is replacing physical immigration documents with a digital proof of immigration status called an eVisa. As part of the move to eVisas, anyone who uses a physical immigration document and who does not already have a UK Visas & Immigration (UKVI) account will need to take action and create an account at www.gov.uk/eVisa. This includes individuals with a Biometric Residence Permit (BRP), a Biometric Residence Card (BRC) or legacy paper documents such as a passport containing an ink-stamp or visa vignette sticker. This move to eVisas does not impact any individuals’ underlying immigration status. Individuals should take action now to avoid any unnecessary complications when sharing visa status information or travelling.

~ eVisas and the great rollout ~ The UK government has delayed the full implementation of eVisas to address concerns about potential disruptions for individuals travelling and verifying their immigration status. In a written statement published on 4 December 2024, the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Migration and Citizenship, announced an extension for expired biometric residence permits (BRPs) and EU Settlement Scheme (EUSS) biometric residence cards. These documents will now remain valid for travel until at least March 31, 2025, provided the holder maintains valid immigration status. This extends the original deadline of December 31, 2024. While this extension allows temporary use of expired physical documents, the government strongly encourages all visa holders to transition to eVisas at the earliest opportunity. #eVisa #ukimmigration #ukvisas #brp #brc
