<p>The waiting times for biometric residence permits (BRP) are dictated by the BRP
production and delivery processes.</p><p>We aim to deliver a BRP within 7 working
days of the immigration decision. BRPs are produced at the secure delivery facility
(Driver and Vehicle Licencing Agency (DVLA)) within 48 hours of the production request
being made and are collected by our secure delivery partner the same day. Our secure
delivery partner (FedEx) aims to attempt to deliver the BRPs within 48 hours of receipt
of the BRPs. This equates to a minimum of 5 working days from date of production request
being made to delivery of the BRP. We have added an additional 2 working days to the
timeline advised to applicants to allow us to resolve any production issues.</p><p>Since
1st April 2022, DVLA have produced all BRPs within 48 hours of the production request,
with 99.5% being produced within 24 hours. Since 1st April 2022, our Secure Delivery
Partners, FedEx and Royal Mail Group have attempted to deliver over 99% of BRPs within
48 hours, and delivered over 80% of BRPs successfully on first delivery attempt.</p><p>Information
on incorrect or returned deliveries is not publicly available, and so we are unable
to answer this question.</p><p>Statistics regarding the individual production time
of each BRP from the time a decision is made is not available publicly and could only
be obtained at a disproportionate cost.</p>
