Usually about a week to 10 days, sometimes less. It will be delivered by a courier company called DX Delivery. If you aren't home when they try to deliver the first time they will leave instructions on how to re-schedule for a different day or delivery address. Annoyingly, they only deliver during standard business hours Monday to Friday. You can, however, for an additional fee schedule delivery for a specific morning or afternoon block of time. Money grab compared to Royal Mail deliveries that you can at least go in and pick up at your convenience.

There you go, didn't know that, guess I didn't read the letter close enough :lol: or they neglected to mention it.

Can you please elaborate on this? When do I choose the Centre, during application? Or after first failed delivery?

You phone DX couriers to check if they have a parcel for you and then arrange to collect it if you are near one of their centres.

This does NOT however apply to YOUR circumstances of a visa application OUTSIDE the UK. It applies to applications within the UK. Your spouse will have to collect the BRP from your nominated Post Office.

Please do not tag onto other members topics that are not related to your circumstances.
