BRP valid until....

[Moy]

it the booklet together with BRP card.. there is a valid date .....
and on the booklet explain what the valid date is

according to the booklet, "valid until"-the date the permit expires.This date is at the end of the time you are allowed to stay; or five or 10 years if you have been given permission to settle in the United Kingdom (known as indefinite to remain"

does it means ILR has now expiration??
OR IS it just the actual card has need to be renew..still the booklet is confusing though to what it really means

am totally confuse .COM

[lastlid]

My take on ILR is that no visa is required anymore. But I have often wondered about the word "indefinite" as it suggests that the government could change its mind. This is one of those things that I need to get myself clear on too.

Indefinite leave to remain

Indefinite leave to remain (often known as 'ILR' and 'settlement') is permission to remain in the UK without any time restrictions on the length of stay. It is not the same as naturalisation as a British citizen and may, in specific circumstances, be ceased or invalidated, for example, if a fraudulent application is uncovered, if the person resides outside of the UK for more than 2 years or as a result of a criminal conviction that results in a Deportation Order coming into force.

From Wikipedia....

"Indefinite leave to remain (ILR) is an immigration status granted to a person who does not hold the right of abode in the United Kingdom (UK), but who has been admitted to the UK without any time limit on his or her stay and who is free to take up employment or study, without restriction. When indefinite leave is granted to persons outside the United Kingdom it is known as indefinite leave to enter (ILE).
A person who has indefinite leave to remain, the right of abode or Irish citizenship has settled status if resident in the United Kingdom (all full British citizens have the right of abode).
Settled status is central to British nationality law, as the most usual route to naturalisation or registration as a British citizen requires that the applicant be settled in the UK. Settled status is also important where a child of non-British citizen parents is born in the UK, as unless at least one parent has settled status the child will not automatically be a British citizen."

What exactly does it say in the booklet?

The definition I posted gives you the answer.

"Indefinite leave to remain (ILR) is an immigration status granted to a person who does not hold the right of abode in the United Kingdom (UK), but who has been admitted to the UK without any time limit on his or her stay and who is free to take up employment or study, without restriction." So no time limit. No expiration.

Yep, ILR indefinite period of unrestricted stay in UK
Except if you leave UK for a continuous period of 2 years or more.
Then it's no longer valid.
Better to get British Citizenship

Thanks Terpe. Why do they give it such an uncertain title? Why not Definite Leave to Remain (providing you do or dont do x, y or z) ? Or even Leave to Remain....

[joebloggs]

the expiry date on the BRP is the expiry date of the BRP card (10 years for adults, and 5 years or less for minors).

It is not the expiry date of your settled status.
