Thank you all.
I know I might be late, but if you go to AAA their camera does different countries photo's.. Walgreen, rite aid even the post office will get declined... mine did... so I went to AAA did it perfect, no problems with photo, got approved... good luck !!

I went to Walgreens and did not have any problems. Me and my kids were all issued new passports with no problems with the photos we submitted.

Did you alter the picture in any way? Try to cut it to size etc?

My cc was just charged so I'm assuming that means the uncut pics were ok from Walmart

Could you do me a favor please (if you get the chance) I would love to know when you get yours back ... as our timing and $$ are not adding up this time!
Anyway we will be mailing it all off on the 7th Jan.
I am hoping 6 weeks will be enough time for 5 passports

Thanks so much.

If I remember rightly we got our passports within a week/10 days of our CC being charged.

YAY! Mine might take a little longer as no one is home to receive packages. So I might have to pick it up from DHL. I detest DHL because they always leave packages at my door even though they are suppose to be signed for, so we shall see if they leave my documents (which should arrive first) followed by my passport

Hi Sarah,

Can I ask if they had done the uk sizing in Walgreens or did they give you the bigger ones?

Thanks

I told them it was for UK passports and they adjusted the sizing accordingly. I did nothing to the photos they gave me and sent them off as they were given to me.

Thanks for your quick reply - looks like I'll have to get ours redone, although on the wiki site here it says its ok to send the us size photos and that's what threw me initially.
