I understand how you feel Pops...what happens if you get that emergency call from back home? Don't worry the odds are on your side and you'll get your PP back before the end of the month.
You know that call could come this week,this year next year or in 20 years, but I will feel better when I have it in my hands or at least know they have recieved it that way they can always get it to me ASAP if need be. |
Re: Renewing British Passport?
British Embassy passport office just called me :)
To verify that I did not want my middle name on my passport because it was on the C1 form application and my divorce and marriage certificate, but not on the old passport....so I said "will it make a difference" and he said that even if my GC has the middle name on, no, just make sure when I book flights etc not to include the middle name to save confussion either way not a problem as all the details are encrypted in the passport anyway. But if any of you do send your passport as we talked about, and want your middle name added to a new passport that was not there previously then you need to send a Birth Certificate. He said it would be with me within 7 days but he had the tracking number already so it must be good to go I guess, either way its done.. |

You have to go to the FAQ on the embassy site to find any mention that you may not need to do this if its a renewal - doesn't seem too clear - especially as the FAQ are quite old.
http://www.britainusa.com/sections/a...=41001&a=25312 Yes I see what you mean answer 14. :unsure: Just get it done mine was done by a notary public. There is also a online form you can print for them to take the payment I used that service as I was not sure how much they wanted. |

Thats another problem at the moment, I am about to move so probably need to wait as depending on when they take the payment my address may be different. I don't want to spend money on a cashiers check either - that I just object to. |

It does say somewhere that notary public is not acceptable as a countersignatory.
