Your application for a UK visa (vignette) has been successful. This letter is not a permission to
travel to the UK.
Before you can travel to the UK, you will need to collect your visa. Please do not attempt to
travel to the UK until you have collected your visa.
We will contact you when your visa is ready to collect from the visa application centre
where you submitted your application.
Please do not visit the visa application centre until you are contacted.
This letter explains that when you arrive in the UK you will have permission to be in the UK (known
as Leave to Enter) as STUDENT DEP CHILD from 23 Jan 2023 to 28 May 2024.
If you are required to quarantine in line with UK government guidance, please do not visit your
collection point until after your quarantine period has expired. If this takes you beyond your
vignette expiry date, your BRP will be held at your collection point for 90 days from the start date
on your vignette and will be available for collection once you are able to collect.
We recommend that you follow the COVID-19 immigration and BRP advice on GOV.UK:
https://www.gov.uk/guidance/coronavirus-covid-19-advice-for-uk-visa-applicants-and-
temporary-uk-residents
https://www.gov.uk/biometric-residence-permits/collect
When you go to collect your BRP you must bring your passport/travel document containing the
vignette. Please also bring this letter as it will help the staff to locate your BRP quickly.
If your collection point is at a Post Office, you can find out more at: www.postoffice.co.uk
Your BRP card will be available for collection two weeks from the date of issue of your visa.
You must be accompanied by a “Responsible Adult”, or you will be turned away by the Post Office
staff. Your parent or legal guardian can be your Responsible Adult but only if they are collecting
their own BRP at the same time. In all other cases the adult who will accompany you must be
approved in advance by the Home Office, even if they are your parent or legal guardian.
It will take at least a week to process a request to approve a Responsible Adult, and we cannot
speed it up because that person is about to leave the UK, so apply as early as you can
If you have been granted permission as a Skilled Worker, International Sportsperson or Minister of
Religion, your National Insurance Number (NINo) will appear in the remarks on the reverse of your
biometric residence permit (BRP), so there is no need for you or your employer to make a separate
application to the Department for Work and Pensions to obtain one. Further information about the
National Insurance Number can be found at: www.gov.uk/national-insurance
If you have a police registration condition attached to your permission it will no longer appear on
your BRP. If you are required to register with the police this will be confirmed on your vignette,
which you will need to show when you register with the police. If you are required to register you
must do so within 7 days of your arrival in the UK. For information on registering with the police
please visit: www.gov.uk/register-with-the-police.
The police registration requirement may appear on your visa as any of the following:
Pol Reg
Pol Registration
Police Registration within 7 days of UK entry
Police Registration within 7 days of arrival
Police Registration within 7 days of arrival in the UK
Where you have been granted 6 months or 33 months Entry Clearance under Appendix FM, the
endorsement on your vignette indicates the basis on which you have been granted leave under the
Rules. That will also enable you to identify when you are likely to be able to apply for settlement
(assuming that you continue to meet the relevant requirements):
(Standard)
it means that you are currently on a 5 year route to settlement. If you continue to meet the
requirements and make the appropriate applications for further leave to remain, you are likely to be
eligible to apply for settlement in 5 years.
it means that you are currently on a 10 year route to settlement. If you continue to meet the
requirements and make the appropriate applications for further leave to remain, you are likely to be
eligible to apply for settlement in 10 years. If you are later able to meet the requirements and make
an appropriate application, it is open to you to switch to start a 5 year route; however, time spent
on the 10 year route will not be counted towards it.
Yours sincerely,
UK Visas & Immigration, Home Office.
