UK Permanent Resident visa
This is my UK permanent resident visa, which is the visa that allows me to be in the UK. It's current and has no expiration date so I've tried to spoil it so it would be harder for someone to copy.
Note that the visa does not have my name or even my photograph on it. There are quite legitimate criticisms of the UK immigration system, namely that it is ridiculously easy to forge visas and that they're insecure.
I disagree that it's easy to forge them, but it would be easy for someone to remove the visa from my passport and put it in their own. Since there's no name or photo, how would immigration know that the visa was stolen? I think the Home Office needs to get their act together regarding visas; they're just not secure enough.
