You will need photo ID, I took my driving licence.

Oh no, that's not good. I only have one form of photo ID, which is my passport

This is the list I found

Acceptable forms of ID are:

valid UK driving license (full or provisional) or
old or new passport or
credit or debit card or
two recent household bills (dated within the last 3 months)

Hmm, I only have a debit card. I hope that's enough. I haven't heard anything since my status changed to Issued. Is it normal for it to take a couple of days?

Congratulations, Maria. Yes, please keep it safe. Do not attempt to open it. Do not damage the outside of the envelope. Do not lose the envelope. Bring it with you in your purse or carry-on luggage.

Safe travels.
