Can any one help clarify how do I receive my BRP while i'm away from home.
I got my ILR on Monday 13 August through PEO solihull. I live in Cardiff and am currently away from my postal address until next week . The ILR approval letter says "on the delivery the courier will require proof of identity and signature to confirm receipt of the package". Is it sent through special delivery? Can another family member receive this for me? Any response much appreciated.

This is a matter for the courier or Royal Mail (whichever it is). You need to ask them how you can redirect an undelivered package. It's likely that, in the event you are not their to receive it, the package will be returned to their sorting office to await instructions from you on what you would like to do. They normally leave a card with a telephone number.

Today I recieved my BRP, my ILR was approved on 14/8. I was at work when the courier man arrived, my wife showed my passport and recieved the document on my behalf, so I think as long as somebody is there at your address and can show a reasonable identity, then it should not be a problem

Hi,
I beleive BRP is delivered through DX Secure. I had my ILR approved on 16th, I called DX today morning at 01604 496798. Gave my postcode and address and he said that I have the BRP scheduled for delivery on Monday 20th. I could also get the tracking number from him.
This way it will can help you in knowing the status of the BRP and also help in redirecting it if needed.
Regards
