Re: First British passport - delay

I have the exact same story - documents were received on the 18th of May, then another email about documents being received on the 24th of May. Then changed the status to Processed on the 25th of May.

I am so anxious and nervous, I really need my passport :cry:

British passport application delays

Hi all,
I have submitted my british passport application 3 weeks ago and still haven't got an approval, even though looking at the timeline topic, other people got theirs much quicker.

Is it possible to contact HO to check the status?

Thank you

Re: UKVCAS Super Priority Service

How do you choose Super Premium?
