Replaces physical visa documents such as a Biometric Residence Permit (BRPs)
[https://universityofstrathclyde.newsweaver.com/v3files/shard1/85313/29/c43d7c0ea28d4b8ece39ca.png]The Home Office is changing the way in which our students will be able to view evidence of their UK immigration permission by introducing a digital immigration system called eVisas.
An eVisa will reflect the student visa status online and will replace the physical visa documents such as a Biometric Residence Permit (BRPs), and vignettes placed in a student’s passport therefore it will affect how students check their own permission and how they prove what permission they have to the University and other organisations (for accommodation or work).
Students will need to set up a UKVI account to create their visa and update their personal details.
