So, my passport has arrived a day earlier than expected! 8 working days from them notifying of receiving my old passport. I checked the TNT tracker this morning and it said out for delivery but didn’t want to update here until it actually dropped through my letterbox, which it now has.
There are clearly some delays in the system though as the two other applications I’ve made on the same day with paperwork signed for (according to Royal Mail) on the same date (now 8 working days ago, excl Sat & Sun):
– One child renewal has only just had the old passport marked as received.
– One first child still is saying send documents!
