I sent my documents (old passport and marriage certificate to update to married name.) on 3/1/23 and they were delivered at HH on 4/1/23, they were scanned in by HH on 10/1/23.

Recieved an email this morning asking me to send marriage certificate. Rang them up and my application states they’ve recieved an old passport and 2 birth certificates! Have to wait 48 hours to see if they can find it.

Thank you, it was much quicker than I expected. 18 days from application to delivery.

Bootle seems to be one of the slowest offices to process applications at the moment.

I completed a child renewal and this is the current timeline at Glasgow.

Passport printed – 3:29am on 30 May 2022
Application approved – 3:59pm on 26 May 2022
Documents received – 2:12pm on 21 May 2022
Application received – 12:37pm on 17 May 2022
Identity details received – 12:36pm on 17 May 2022
Email sent to person confirming your identity – 8:26pm on 13 May 2022
Ask someone to confirm your identity – 8:24pm on 13 May 2022
Application submitted – 8:24pm on 13 May 2022

It might be taking longer as it is a first passport after naturalisation so there may be more checks they have to carry out.

Your foreign passport and certificate should be sent back seperately when your new passport has been printed and sent out. I think the 10 weeks begin from the application start date.

Sorry I couldn’t be more help.

Thank you for your reply. Things seem to be moving quicker than I expected so hopefully we shouldn’t have to wait too long. Sent the old passport on Tuesday and marked as received today.

I submitted a child renewal application last week. Identity has been verified and old passport sent off yesterday.

Any recent updates for timelines?

We’ve not booked anything yet but we’ve found somewhere for 23rd August, not sure whether to take the risk and book it hoping it’s plenty of time for the passport to arrive.
