Do I still need to collect my BRP card within 10 days of arriving in the UK?
Answer
Don't worry - UKVI have confirmed that you will currently not be penalised if you do not collect your BRP within the usual 10-day deadline.
The University is able to keep your BRP card for longer than usual, as long as you remain sponsored under the Student Visa or Tier 4 system and are intending to travel to the UK.
You should wait to receive an email from the University confirming your BRP Collection appointment following online registration.
