Not necessarily – I did not have to go through an interview for my 1st passport
Thank you Djbdane and Crazy8.
Funnily enough my passport finally got approved this afternoon (exactly 7 weeks after applying) and it was without an interview even though when I called I was told I’ll need to attend an interview first. I’m happy that it’s done now bracing for the print and post.March 22, 2022 at 8:00 pm #10434jmsParticipantRenewal of an adult (jumbo) passport, final timeline:

March 22, 2022 at 8:14 pm #10438jmsParticipant@ jellyj4
They were making up for the time lost in “receiving” the documents…
March 22, 2022 at 8:44 pm #10439amy93Participant@de76 – Mine was approved on Friday 18th too, just waiting on printing now!!
Have you had your documents back yet? (Old passport)Hoping you all get good news soon!
And hope mine gets printed this year 🙄
March 22, 2022 at 9:03 pm #10441de76Participant@amy93 let’s hope so. I really hope I can get away. Praying 🙏. No I haven’t got my documents back as yet.
March 22, 2022 at 9:11 pm #10442Chef0389ParticipantBeen following this thread whilst waiting for an update on my application. From what I’ve seen there is absolutely no order in which they process applications, it seems luck of the draw. Was 3-4 week estimate when I applied.
I have no words to describe how they operate their call centre, call them 10 times asking the same question, you’ll get 10 different answers.
Application being processed 24 February 2022
Identity details received 20 February 2022
Email sent to person confirming your identity 20 February 2022
Ask someone to confirm your identity 20 February 2022
Application submitted 20 February 2022I’m supposed to fly on Thursday morning.. F*ck you HMPO you bunch of incompetent, lying, useless pieces of mass.
March 22, 2022 at 9:21 pm #10443ADgramsParticipantchef0389 – couldn’t have put it better myself 👍
March 22, 2022 at 9:43 pm #10445LKT1990ParticipantChef0389 – 100% agree. Should be exciting times, instead I’m an anxious mess!!
March 23, 2022 at 9:54 am #10460wastedorangesParticipantChef0389 one of my applications went into processing the day after yours (though my application went in on Feb 4) are you a lost passport rather than a renewal?
Cause if it is a lost passport it is much easier to get an emergency appointment so might be worth it in your case?March 23, 2022 at 11:07 am #10472jespop30ParticipantApparently it’s taking 2-3 days to be printed, and 5 days from being approved to being picked up by TNT. And apparently if applications are approved on a Friday or a weekend, they may take slightly longer to be printed. Everyone knows from this forum, how long it can take and if your lucky, it doesn’t take that long at all.
March 23, 2022 at 11:12 am #10473baz8790ParticipantChef, totally agree with you the applications seem so random and the fate of some peoples holidays depends on when their application is taken out of the tombola for processing
I applied on the 6th feb where the timeline was shown as 3 weeks and almost 7 weeks later I’m still waiting for mine to be printed and I’m due to fly on the 28th
Mine was marked as processing on the 23rd feb and approved 19th March so hopefully yours is approved soon too
March 23, 2022 at 12:45 pm #10478kerrydParticipantHi all, after applying on 29th December for my daughter’s first child passport and countless phone calls to HMPO I finally just got the text today to say her application has been approved and gone to print. In your experience how long is it taking from approval to it arriving with you? We are due to travel next Saturday 2nd April so need it in the next 9 days!
March 23, 2022 at 12:56 pm #10479jespop30ParticipantKerryd – and I thought my my son’s first passport took ages. His was finally approved on Monday. I applied on the 8th January. Most people seem to have them printed between 4-6 days but occasionally you have ones that take longer. We fly on the 4th so desperately waiting for the next update.
