I have a strong feeling that my daughters passport application has been processed so quickly because we sent the application to Belfast IPS rather than Peterborough or Liverpool, even though we live south of London.
I have received the documents back but haven't got the interview letter. I was checking posts here and generally everyone got the letter before the documents. Anyone knows if I should wait for the letter to arrive or better try to call them?lapkapups wrote:Application Timeline

Hi, sometimes the documents arrive before the interview letter. But since you have got the documents back, it means they have processed your application. If you can't wait for the letter, you can call them for the reference number. You should be able to get it to book your interview appointment.lapkapups wrote:I have received the documents back but haven't got the interview letter.
