Thank you very much to all the admins & other members on this forum.
I do apologise for posting this, as i couldnt find a thread for my question.
I got my Home office Approval letter by post 22 July but it was dated 12 July 2019, My question is, how long approximately before i can receive my BRP by post?
Thank you so much.

It takes 7 to 10 working days. Also depends what you have applied for as certain routes appear to have delays.

You don't get a brp card when you apply for citizenship.
Not sure why you believe you get a BRP (biometric residence permit) card??

There is no requirement to show a BRP card at the ceremony. You need to show your passport.

You need a valid ID like a passport or driving license as well as the approval letter from HO during your ceremony.
When you become a citizen, you can only get either a British passport or a COE sticker in your home country passport for travel. BRP is not issued to British citizens
