I already told you that there will be no BRPs from the end of 2024. UK immigration will move to a digital status system. What do you mean by easy or hard ??zimba wrote: ↑Sun Apr 30, 2023 1:44 amILR renewal is meaningless as ILR is a permanent status and it does not expire (however it may be lost as in your case). Note that your ILR has lapsed and your status is now LOST as you have been outside the UK for more than 24 months. The fact that you have a BRP card with an expiry until the end of 2024 does not matter. That is the expiry date of all ILR BRP cards.
The returning resident visa simply reinstates the lost ILR status. You will have to come to the UK using that visa and collect your new ILR BRP card which will be valid again until 31/12/2024. BRP is simply used to SHOW/PROVE your status when required. A new digital proof of status system will be introduced very likely from early 2024. After the end of 2024, that system will be used to SHOW/PROVE your status instead of a BRP as all BRPs will be discontinued.
