My husband received an email to replace his BRP with the evisa, but going through all the ID requirements I wasn't able to use the passport to verify his ID as it didn't have a chip. As it didn't scan, it said to send the passport in (which is a no no as he's travelling next few months)
So we used the BRP that has a chip and we have the evisa.
BUT, I was reading the original email and it states that the UKVI account needs to be linked to the passport instead.
Logged into the account now, it states the correct visa type but it does not give information on his passport and that his BRP is the only thing linking to his account which expires 31st Dec this year, oh the joy!
So what I've done now is to update the evisa account to ADD the passport as the identity document to be linked as a travel document. I will update this post once I get an answer from UKVI. Just posting to help others who may have done the same silly thing
