They have a service level to personalise 90% of BRPs within one working day of receipt and the remaining 10% within two working days of receipt. DVLA currently personalise 100% of cards within one working day of receipt.<\/p>
Once produced, the card is either delivered to the customer or made available for collection by the customer from the Post Office depending upon whether the leave application was made inside or outside the UK. For those cards requiring delivery in the UK, the card is collected by from DVLA by DX. DX has a service level agreement to attempt to deliver 100% of BRPs within 48 hours of receipt from DVLA.

We welcome Indian students who want to come to the UK to study at our world-leading educational institutions and there remains no limit on the number of genuine international students who can come to study in the UK.<\/p>
We issue more visas to students from India than any other country, except China and the USA.<\/p>
In the year ending March 2018, the number of Indian student visas granted increased by 30% to 15,171 from the previous year.<\/p>
Over 90% of Indian students who apply for a UK visa get one. This is up from 86% in 2014 and 83% the year before that. In addition, the proportion of Indian students coming to study in the UK at a university has increased from around 50% in 2010 to 93% in 2017.<\/p>"}

No assessment has taken place about the impact of the time people spend on asylum support on the integration of new refugees. The support available to people who claim asylum includes free accommodation, a cash allowance to cover essential living needs, free healthcare and education for their dependent children.<\/p>
If a supported person is granted refugee status they are able to take employment or apply for mainstream benefits.<\/p>
The Integrated Communities Strategy Green Paper sets out our commitment to working with civil society and other partners to increase the integration support for refugees in the United Kingdom. The consultation on the Green Paper closed on 5 June and we are considering the responses.<\/p>"}

Paragraph 322(5) applies across many categories of the Immigration Rules. This information could only be obtained through a manual trawl of individual case records at disproportionate cost.<\/p>
Such a manual trawl is, however, being carried out for Tier 1 (General) migrants who have been refused under paragraph 322(5), as part of the current review of these cases. This work is ongoing. We will report our findings to the Home Affairs Select Committee once the review is complete.<\/p>"}

To obtain settled status, EU citizens and their family members will generally need to have lived continuously in the UK for five years (the continuous qualifying period). Those with less than five years\u2019 continuous residence will be eligible to apply for pre-settled status.<\/p>
For those in the continuous qualifying period for settled status, \u201ccontinuously resident\u201d means that a person has not been absent from the UK for more than six months in total in any 12-month period. There is no restriction on the number of absences permitted, provided that the total period of absence does not exceed six months in any 12-month period.<\/p>
There are some exceptions to this; one instance of 12-month absence in a five-year period is permitted for an important reason such as work, study, serious illness or pregnancy. We will be pragmatic about what activity constitutes an important reason. Any period of absence for compulsory military service is also permitted.<\/p>
However, for applicants who have been continuously resident in the UK for five years, and are therefore eligible for settled status, \u201ccontinuously resident\u201d means that since completing that period they have not been absent from the UK for more than five consecutive years.<\/p>"}
