There is no support for eVisa identity confirmation

There is no way for migrants into the UK to create a new Monzo account in 2025. BRP cards are no longer valid since the beginning of 2025 and there is no support for eVisa identity confirmation. I tried to create an account and there is no way for me to pass the identity check.
Is there any information when this feature will be available?

I don’t remember Monzo ever asking if I was a citizen or had settlement status or anything like that, is that something new?

You’ll have to use another bank.

There were issues with this a while back. They wanted ID but also proof that you were allowed to live here.
