Good day house, When I picked up my Visa, a letter was alongside it and it stated in the letter that I should pick up my BRP within 10 days of arriving the UK. But the rules says to isolate for 14 days after arrival. So can my dad pick up the BRP on my behalf? |

fineEagle: Call the airline to find out, e.g turkish airline does not require a covid test, emirates on the other hand requires it and should be within 96 hours. Call them so you dont get a shocker when you get there. Thank you. Will do just that |

Thank you so much. I would try that tommorow. mimilyrics: I'm not sure about what's obtainable during these Covid-19 times but you stand a chance. Just go with the decision to overturn your refusal + your passport photocopy and tell the security guys that Sheffield has made a decision and redirected you to the BDHC. The security guy will take your paper in to consult with whoever they need to consult with and you might be allowed to enter while you wait to collect your passport. This might or might not work on your 1st visit.

Thank you so Much. Would I be able to get the passport at the BHC if I go there? mimilyrics: In some cases, it takes one week and in others, it takes longer.
Sometimes you don't even get it till you go to the BHC. I don't know if you can just go to the BHC now because of the Covid-19 situation. Case in point, for one overturned refusal, the passport wasn't returned to TLS within the normal expected timescales and it was only handed over by the BDHC after 2 visits. On the 1st visit, the applicant was asked to contact UKVI by the security guys but on the 2nd visit, the applicant was allowed in after stating that Sheffield redirected to the BDHC even though it wasn't exactly stated in plain terms.
Upon receiving the passport, it showed that the visa had been issued like 2 weeks back but had expired because it had a 1-day validity; this had to be reprinted and it took roughly 1 hour.

Please house, how long does it take to get your passport back after an overturned Visa decision? It's been 4 weeks since I submitted my passport after the Visa decision was overturned. |

Oloshi83: No.
You have to have been resident in the UK for three consecutive years to qualify as a home student + have full citizenship and not just a settlement visa (by which I assume you mean limited leave to remain and not ILR).
Thanks. |
