29-Feb-12 - BRP will be issued to successful ILR applicants

Biometric residence permits – online checks to simplify the process for employers
It was also announced that from 29 February 2012 BRPs will be issued to more categories of foreign nationals, including refugees and those granted permission to settle in the UK.

To meet increased demand and provide foreign nationals with more locations around the UK where fingerprints and photographs can be taken, the immigration minister has today announced that a contract for the collection of this information has been awarded to the Post Office Ltd.

The contract will run for 4 years and Post Office Ltd will offer a network of around 100 locations from spring 2012.
For those intending to apply on/after the given date but not familiar with biometric enrolment process should read the "Biometric residence permits - application process" (PDF) available on this UKBA webpage.
