    It seems like I am one of the few people having delays with linking supporting documents to the passport application. Royal Mail confirmed delivery on 1 February and 21 days later I am still waiting for the Passport Office to update the system. I have also been waiting since 15 Feb for a call back. I was told by one of the call centre agents that every time someone calls for an update the clock starts again and we go to the back of the queue for a call back. Has anyone had this problem? It’s frustrating not being able to speak with someone who actually works in the Passport Office, the staff in the call centre don’t have access to any information.

    I am currently applying for my first adult passport, but i have a dilemma.

    On gov.uk, it estimates that it will take up to 5 weeks to process a new application, so if I apply by the end of this week, it will be done by the end of march/beginning of april, which is around the time that I need to travel.

    Would it be wise to apply and pray my new passport arrives before I travel, or request the original (non-UK) passport back?

    Just thought I would update with my timing as my passport arrived today. Adult renewal with original passport still in date.

    Applied 8th Feb
    Sent Old passport 9th Feb, they received 10th Feb
    Acknowledged receipt of old passport 16th Feb
    Approved application 17th Feb
    Sent 18th Feb
    Arrived today – 22nd Feb

    So 2 weeks start to finish. Cheers

    Any intel onto the usual amount of time it takes from a passport being registered as delivered to start processing? Currently have been waiting a week. (it took 7 days from royal mail saying delivered to documents saying as received for anyone wondering about that!)

    I would book a fast track one. £150. It’s says 5 weeks now, but last week it was 4, so the offices are getting busier.

    I’m pretty sure that they don’t offer fast track for first adult passports?

    My kids passports applied online January 12th, both been processing since 7th Feb and the other 11th of Feb… anyone know what that means exactly and how long this stage should take?

    Are they first or renewals? My son’s has been processing since 16th, lady yesterday told me it was with examiner, don’t think that means much though. Personally I would ring but I am just impatient, and we travel on the 4th April

    Personally I would ring, definitely about the renewal, as two of my son’s had renewals and they were approved 2 and 3 days after going to application processing. My daughter’s first passport was approved 6 days after the passport office updated the system saying documents received. I am going to ring tomorrow as it will be 4 weeks since I did the application. Liverpool seem to be going slower at the minute
