sualg Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Hi All, couple of questions for my learned friends; 1) back in Feb 2017 I was granted PR while in the UK, activated the visa on the 19th March 2017 on a short trip to Sydney before a permanent move in Oct 2017. 2) I have submitted my citizenship application on the 12th April. 3) i have just booked a short 4 week trip back to the UK for March/April 2022 Question 1 when will I require a RRV? Is it 4 year from the grant or the activation ? Question 2 I know from reading this forum that I will need to inform the government about my trip back to the UK but I can’t find any facility to do this on my Immi account now my application has been submitted, is there a process? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetBlast Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 (edited) Q1 - 5 years from grant. So the travel right will expire Feb 2022. Check your grant letter for the exact date. Based on this you will need a RRV. Unless you become a citizen before this point. Edited October 17, 2021 by JetBlast 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marisawright Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 @sualg, you need to apply for a RRV because you may not get your citizenship by the time you're ready to leave. You don't want to be stuck abroad without a RRV. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oops sorry, yes, I was forgetting about the citizenship side of things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
