BIOMETRIC RESIDENCY CARDS

 



BIOMETRIC RESIDENCY CARDS

When you go to Immigration you will be told approximately how long it will take for your card to be issued [currently around 4 months] and that a letter will be received.

For personal experience, appointment 10 March and told 3 months.   We were in the area early May so called in and the cards were there for collection.

This week, letters dated 9 May have been received telling us the cards are ready for collection and that collection must be made within 30 days!  

Please do not wait for a letter - suggest call in at Immigration with your receipt [given at time of appointment] at around the time given for when the cards will be ready
