Child first passport

[carriehall]

@ricksrod They sent me an email with a letter attached as PDF, which had the list of additional documents I needed to send along with the specific person who was dealing with the claim so it would go straight to them.

@carriehall – was yours sent via DHL and did you get tracking information?

[carriehall]

@ricksrod Yeah, we got DHL tracking information for the passport as well as the supporting documents. The supporting docs have only just come through though

Morning, does anyone have a idea of how long it takes for the documents (birth certificate)to show as received online ? They were signed for a week ago and it’s still asking me to send documents.

Hi Emma did you have any progress?

We’re part way through the process:
Application submitted 9:18pm on 16 August 2021
Ask someone to confirm your identity 9:18pm on 16 August 2021
Email sent to person confirming your identity 9:24pm on 16 August 2021
Identity details received 3:42pm on 17 August 2021
Application received 3:42pm on 17 August 2021
Documents received 12:21pm on 24 August 2021

We’re hoping to travel mid September so I’m keeping everything crossed!

Best not to book for mid September yet.

Our documents were received over a week ago and it hasn’t started processing yet. Could well be at least a couple of weeks from processing looking at replies above.

[spencer1]

Still waiting after 2 weeks of documents received.

Documents received 1:33pm on 13 August 2021
Application received 1:02pm on 9 August 2021
Identity details received 1:02pm on 9 August 2021
Email sent to person confirming your identity 2:51pm on 8 August 2021
Ask someone to confirm your identity 2:46pm on 8 August 2021
Application submitted 2:46pm on 8 August 2021

[Dynamac]

Update: we never got an application being processed notification after the documents were noted as being received. But 2 weeks later it was approved, and a day after that the passport was dispatched.

So overall in August 2021 it took 3 weeks from when documents were delivered to the passport office (they acknowledged receipt of documents 3 working days later) to passport being dispatched. So not too bad.
