Type: Standard adult renewal
Sent: October 29th (USPS priority mail), arrived November 5th.
Payment taken: November 8th.
Passport arrived: November 18th.
I created the passport photo myself and got it printed at Walmart. I sent a 6x4 inch standard photo containing four UK sized passport images and two US sized images (just for the hell of it, since I had space). I used their guidelines to ensure the photo fit the template supplied.

Re: Uk passport renewal times in the USA
Reporting from the Cayman Islands in the Caribbean... My wife and I have just renewed our UK passports. I can't recall the exact time it took, but it was all done and dusted within a month. Hers was delayed a little because the colour photocopy of her Cayman Drivers' Licence that she sent (with "proof" of our street address on a government document) was of the expired Licence, not the current one. They emailed us and we had to courier it across. That's a silly requirement of theirs, because we don't have street mail-delivery here. The Licence is the only document that has our street address on it. We supplied the address, and nobody has ever checked it. Go figure!

Re: Uk passport renewal times in the USA
Is it ok to send regular US sized passport photos to the place in Durham? I've been reading conflicting information.
Thanks,
