UK passport response time
I sent in applications for new UK passports for my 2 sons on Jan 22nd. Courier service provided record that the UK passport office received the application on Jan 30th. I have not heard back from them and it is approx 5 weeks. Can someone tell me how long it takes typically for new passport applications? Thanks in advance.

Thanks. yes, I sent them to DC and it is a first time application (not renewal). I'll wait another 2 weeks. Not sure how/where to contact the UK embassy in DC to get status information. The only thing I saw on their website was a phone number in the UK to call for general info and they charge per minute. I assume that calling that number wont help to get passport application status info.

Re: UK passport response time
If it helps any when I recently sent my daughter's first time application it took exactly 6 weeks from them receiving it and me receiving the new passport.
Did you pay by bank card or credit card? If so, check to see if the charge has posted. In my case the bank card was charged about a week after the Passport Office got the application and they charged for the full amount of the application and return postage; it was about 5 weeks after that when we received the new passport. good luck |
