I'm anticipating the dispatch and return of my passport with the visa inside given that the status changed to 'Issued' late afternoon today and had some questions.
Obviously I've read everything available at: https://ais.usvisa-info.com/en-gb/iv/information/courier and at: https://ais.usvisa-info.com/en-gb/iv/information/faqs#track_documents
I'm having it delivered to my home as the nearest pickup location is about 270 miles/435 kilometres away.
Where I am, with the exception of The Royal Mail everything North of Inverness gets subcontracted for local delivery. So Hermes, DPD, DHL, FedEx, etc will all hand off to different local companies that deliver North of Inverness, this can cause some issues with tracking, etc but is mostly fine. They do the same for pickups.
With this in mind I'm wondering:
lf DX Couriers do this or will they make the journey themselves? I'm not sure if a similar procedure and setup is used in other locations.
Are DX Couriers an actual company with their own branded vans and drivers or do they subcontract by their very nature?
What kind of window will they give for the expected delivery, hours? Or just an entire day?
I know they technically shouldn't the first time but will they deliver to another adult at the location? I'm going to be there depending on the window but I was curious
