First Time Child Passport

There is Hope hope out there!! Just thought I’d share our positive experience for anyone out their panicking like I did. We applied for 2 renewals which we got back within 3 weeks and a child’s first passport which took longer, so after all the stories I was hearing I was worried that we wouldn’t get his passport in time to go away in August for a wedding! After applying on the 7th April his passport was received yesterday on the 12th May!!
