BRP card - location
« on: January 08, 2019, 05:46:49 PM »
Can you change the location to pick up your BRP card when you arrive in the UK. ?
We had a third party help with the app and documents prior to knowing about all these expert sites and they put Preston as the pick up location instead of Liverpool. :-X :-X
Just asking in advance as we are still waiting for decision

Have a look here:
https://www.gov.uk/biometric-residence-permits/collect

There is a section about being able to pick up your BRP at a different Post Office, but it does say that you will need to arrange it with the specific Post Office branch, and you'll need to pay a fee to do so.

From that page:

Collecting your BRP from a different Post Office branch

You can choose to pick up your BRP from a different Post Office branch. You’ll need to arrange this at the branch and pay a fee.

Check that the Post Office branch you want to use offers a ‘BRP collection service’.

Perfect the Liverpool offices do have BRP collection so if all goes well we will be able to change

Unrelated and unhelpful to your post... but my husbands location was automatically chosen to Preston too! I was hoping there would be one in Blackpool, but Preston isn’t too far!
