Name change in BRP

Post by psam » Sun Aug 15, 2021 12:22 pm

Hi,

My wife has Indian passport with ILR residency status. She is changing her name to go back to her maiden name (no change is our relationship status). We are getting the Indian passport amended. I have couple of questions to get UK BRP updated:

1) What are the supporting documents needed? Official site just gives an online application link only.
2) What is the processing time for this? Is there are a premium service for this?
3) Do we need to submit Indian passport and BRP for verification or can I use Post office verification service?

Any advice to finish this process in the fastest way is welcome so that we can start travelling ASAP.

Thanks in advance

Hi. It take about 8weeks after your appointment for fingerprint. You need to show Indian passport and marriage certificate or deed pool. Few address proof.
That all basically
