I’m travelling abroad for work on 9th March and very worried that my renewal won’t be back in time. I submitted on 21st January and it’s being waiting for the examiner since 10th February to be processed so now at 5 1/2 weeks wait time.
Has anyone done the 1-week fast track at this point and reported old passport as lost/stolen?
As I understand it is have to withdraw this current renewal in writing, get form from post office, get passport photos and then book and pay for an appointment?
Need advice! I’m so stressed about it all

Hi - did you sort this? I’m facing a similar dilemma, due to fly on 4th april
I also wanted to this very same thing, i was told (after numerous calls) by the advisors that in order to cancel the current application I have to cancel and wait for old passport to be sent back, which could take 3-4 weeks :(
