Re: Renewing British Passport?
I have no idea where my FULL birth certificate is and sending off for one will delay this even further. The site gives a phone number, but, the help line has been contracted out to a private company and costs US about $3 a MINUTE to call them, all I need is for them to put me on hold !! LOL

Now that's what I thought after reading it again...BUT why have a charge for a change, and a separate charge for a new it does not make sense.!!

Re: Renewing British Passport?
I had this problem recently when buying a UK property. It was requested my PP details were notorised. I got it notorised but this was not recognised in the UK. In the UK a notary is a practising solicitor with a law degree. This does not equate to the qualifications of a notary in the US.
