Question to the Home Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what is the average delay time in issuing Biometric Residence Permit cards to refugees from Afghanistan.

Over 15,000 people were supported to come to the UK directly following the evacuation of Afghanistan, with a further 3,000 having arrived since.

As we continue to grant people indefinite leave to remain in the UK, their BRPs are automatically issued, usually within a few weeks.
