You will have a UKVI account if you:

• Have EU settled or pre-settled status
• Applied for your current visa using the 'UK Immigration: ID Check' app to scan your identity document on your phone

You will need:

• Details of the identity document you used when you applied (your passport, national identity card, or biometric residence permit (BRP)
• Your date of birth
• Access to the mobile number or email address you used when you applied - you’ll be sent a code to log in

You will be able to view:

• Your name
• What immigration status you have (Student, EU Settled Status, Skilled Worker etc)
• The expiry date of your status
• What you are allowed to do in the UK, such as your Right to Study, work, and rent in the UK

Below is an example of what you will see when you successfully log into the system.

A share code is generated online for you to share with others, along with your date of birth, so that they can see your immigration status.

If you have an eVisa rather than a physical visa or BRP, then you will be required to provide a share code to the university as evidence of your Right to Study in the UK.

Firstly, you will need to log into the .

After you have logged in, you will need to click the green button on the page called 'Get a share code', as shown below.

Screenshot with the heading Prove your status; text reads: If you need to prove your immigration status to someone, you can do this online with a share code; followed by a green button marked Get a share code.

You will then select 'Preview what the checker will see'. After this, you will need to scroll to the bottom and click 'Create a share code'.

You will then see a share code. It is a random string of letters and numbers. You can see an example of a share code below:

Screenshot titled Details you need to share. Sub heading reads Share code. An example 14 digit code is shown.

Once you have generated a share code, you can either:

• Copy and email this share code directly to either immigrationcompliance@dmu.ac.uk or visaadvice@dmu.ac.uk
• Email it to the university through the online system to either email address above

You must also provide your date of birth so that we can successfully view your online status.

The share code can usually be viewed for up to 90 days. It should also state the expiry date on it.

There is no limit on how many share codes you can request. You can request a new one before your share code expires if needed.

The university will use your share code in order to check and verify your immigration status and your Right to Study. We will enter your share code into the following gov.uk website:
.

Your immigration status will then be saved on your Student record as evidence. This is a UKVI requirement that the university has a copy of this saved.

You must ensure your details are kept up to date. Otherwise, this is likely to cause issues if you are awaiting a decision from the UKVI, or when you try to enter the UK at Border Control for example.

You can update your details online through the government website:
