Passport return with Visa - Options
Ok, so assuming they agree my Visa - IR1
Im not sure if to go with collection from DX depot or pay for delivery to home
Struggling to find opening times for there depots , anyone help with that ?
If you collect what ID do they need to be taken ?
If select delivery to home address I assume they will only hand to named recipient .. if so and Im at work, will they accept redelivery on a different day or can you
amend delivery date in advance like other couriers do ?
Hope someone with experience can give there advice.
Thank you

Re: Passport return with Visa - Options
My local depot in Northampton is open 8-6pm Monday to Friday, 9-12pm Saturdays and I presume it would be similar for other depots across the country. I chose to collect mine, and I only needed to show my driving license as proof of ID (as well as a printout of the email from DX notifying me my packet was ready for delivery). There have been some horror stories regarding DX's unsavoury delivery methods, but one would hope those are few and far between. I wanted to avoid anything remotely going wrong with delivery, so I chose to collect mine from the depot - but not everyone has that option given that they don't have that many locations scattered across the country. The DX website itself is hopeless for working out where their depot locations are based. I could only eventually find this out when I got to the part of booking my interview via the US embassy's website.

My son's immigrant visa packet was delivered by DX to my mother's address with no issue whatsoever. This was preferable for us than delivery to his shared student house.
