Indian passport renewal

[goldenstarnice]

Recently I've renewed my Indian passport, on the last page of passport HCI, London stamped 'cancelled and returned which hold valid visas'. Is that right. Will it create any confusion in future.

Thanks

that's normal. Carry both passports for travel if you wish to use the visas from the old passport.

Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone had any experience/information about the processing time for the re-issue (renewal) of a short validity Indian passport.

My husband applied for one on 20/12/13. We took all the necessary paperwork (his current passport, filled out passport application, a copy of my passport and a copy of our marriage certificate which was attested by a solicitor.

At the desk the officer demanded to see an original copy of our marriage certificate, I explained that we didnt have the original as it was with the home office (I am applying for my husband’s spouse visa) and that this copy had been attested by our solicitor.

They took the application and my husband paid the fee’s (£52) and the receipt had no date written on it.

On the 30/12/13 we had to go back to the HCI as I was applying for my OCI card so my husband thought he would ask about his passport. The man at the counter has told him to come back in 4 weeks with our original marriage certificate and then he will get his passport.

My question is has anyone else been through this? And did you get your passport after 4 weeks?

Any advice and guidance will be most appreciated.
