Pre-Settled Status
Good Morning, I am hoping to get some assistance. I moved to the UK in September 2019 from South-Africa on a EEA family visa (my son is Norwegian). I was given a residency card that expires on 30 June 2021, I do however have pre-settled status too which expires on 24 May 2025. Do I need to get a new Biometric Residency card and if so how do I do this? According to my pre-settled status I am allowed to be in the country, but should I wish to travel (which will be on my South African passport I have no actual visa). I have tried searching and cannot find information on what to do. Please does anyone know what I need to do. Many thanks

Re: Pre-Settled Status
You get a letter and then it’s all done via the number on your Biometric residency card or passport number online. If you need to prove your right to reside at the bank, NHS or for work you get a code that can be supplied to check your status.

Re: Pre-Settled Status
As a non-EU/EEA/Swiss citizen with pre-settled status you should currently have a BRP to confirm this. Is that the case? What type of BRP you currently hold? If it expires on 30 June 2021 then I’m guessing ‘Family member of a Union citizen’? How do you know you have pre-settled status?
