Refugee integration loan
Apply
You must apply online for an integration loan.
To apply you’ll need your:
- biometric residence permit (BRP)
- Home Office reference number
- bank or building society account details
You’ll also need to provide your National Insurance number. If you do not have one, you must apply for one at your local Jobcentre Plus before you apply for an integration loan.
If you’ve already applied by post or email
You can no longer apply by post or email. If you sent an application by post or email before 18 May 2020 your application will still be reviewed. You do not need to do anything.
