Re: Uk passport renewal times in the USA
Got my new passport back yesterday, 12 Feb 2013.
Sent it off on 24 Jan 2013. 13 working days total, less than 3 weeks overall.
Pretty good service, I guess I got priority being Welsh...

I think that's where the tracking ends. It goes to the BC in DC and they take care of the application before sending it back to the uk for renewal.
Has your card been charged yet ?

You're ok if you're not in a hurry for it I think. But at least you know it's there now regardless of how you sent it.
They charged my card after having the application just a couple of days. So I'm hoping they continue in that timely manner.

I was fortunate with Wells Fargo they allowed the amount to be debited from my account without querying it. Though I did actually call them to confirm that it was ok and not any kind of fraudulent activity.

Hello all im new to this forum
I sent my application for the renewal of my passport by fedex 7th of feb they have the fee pending from my bank as of the 11th feb. Its still sitting pending as of now I really hope it clears by tomorrow
I was wondering if anybody else has had the fee pending for a few days???
I called my bank to tell them to allow all charges from DC and the UK to go through they said it was not a problem
Ill keep you posted of with my timeline.

This is interesting. Did you call before or after it was pending for a few days? Is it a US or UK bank?

Re: Uk passport renewal times in the USA
It is a usa bank
When I called them after it had been pending for a day and asked why it was still pending the associate said he wasnt sure but it should be fine. The strange thing is the fedex charge to send it sat pending for 5 days!
