Re: CIC Citizenship timelines
We have an appt tomorrow but can't find an old passport, the one my husband had when we landed. Will this be a problem? He thinks that the passport office kept it when. He got the new one.

You may want to have a look at this file - this is what Call Centre agents have in front of their eyes when quoting delays for your CIT/other apps in offices across the country:

Interestingly enough, I see 48 months figure not where I'd expect it to be.
