Hi, My partner sent away for his renewal on the 10th April and his passport was delivered by the 15th May. Pretty quick. He had lost his passport and it was due to expire on the 27th of April. I on the other hand am left waiting as it’s my first adult passport so will need an interview. We’re due to go away at the beginning of September. You would think they could find a way around doing interviews face to face. Even zoom interviews would surely make sense and stop a backlog of passport interviews building up. Suppose I’ll just have to keep my fingers crossed that everything is up and running again soon.
