The Home Office is processing Windrush cases, and the issuing of the associated Biometric Residence Permits (BRP) once a decision has been made, as a priority.

This is being successfully managed to provide Windrush individuals with the documents they need as soon as possible, without impacting on the performance of wider BRP production.
