Hi

They just check your application to make sure nothing has been missed out and everything's accurate. You can make an appointment at many post offices for a time that suits you. No, the passport is not issued there and then but is sent to you from the passport office - it's pretty quick apprently!

1. For security. First time applicants for an adult Australian passports have had to apply in person for a long time.
2. Yes, but it's generally a short one.
3. http://www.australia.org.uk/lhlh/PptsWhere.html (you have the choice of London or Edinburgh, if you're in Northern Ireland you might want to see if you can lodge in Dublin instead).
4. No
