Hey, has anybody applied for a passport recently. If so. How long did it take to process and get it back? We’ve got a holiday booked for August (currently not cancelled! ) my eldest’s passport is out of date and my youngest doesn’t have one! I know we’re not supposed to apply right now but worried they won’t have one in time if we leave it any longer! Thanks
holiday
august

Hi I sent off my sons passport about a week before lockdown for a July holiday. I received his new passport last week! So they are definitely back working, maybe just prioritising travel dates? Here is the text I received.

I applied online for mine and my daughters passport in March during lockdown and we had them back within just under 2 weeks. So really quick turnaround. No holiday plans until September

My husbands renewal came back within 1-2 weeks but my sons renewal still hasn’t arrived and it’s been 5 weeks now. I applied for both online. Not sure why one was prioritised and not the other but timescales are obviously varying at the moment for one reason or another with everything going on

We applied for a first passport on 12th March and still haven't received it or received the documents back yet. My husband applied for a renewal a week or two later and got it back within 2 weeks. And our holiday was cancelled

Got mine back in less than a week. Did it all online and sent back my old passport on the day I submitted the application.
