Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what discussions he has had with financial industry representatives on enabling people with biometric residence permits to continue to evidence indefinite leave to remain beyond 2024.

As part of our move to a “digital by default” border and immigration system, biometric residence permits (BRPs) will be replaced by a fully digital eVisa by the end of 2024. Anyone with a BRP will be able to register for an eVisa and we will issue further communications about what individuals will need to do and the support available in due course. UKVI will update their information on how to prove your immigration status in early 2024.

The Home Office regularly engages with a broad range of stakeholders about changes to our border and immigration system, For example, through our Employers Advisory Group, whose members include Deloitte, PWC, and UK Finance, amongst others.
