Hi Lewis, for TNT you need to take the PEX off the front and also remove the spaces – that should work in the PAN area
@lewismorgan10
That was how mine got processed. As I understood it, the evidence needs to be a hotel booking or flight confirmation that shows the date of booking to be before pandemic and date of travel within 14 days I was asked for.
I sent that on a Saturday, Monday my passport suddenly was recieved, Tuesday the application accepted and today notification that it is in the post
Good luck
Yes they said they would call me but they didn’t they just processed the passport two days after saying someone would call me, but they were already in possession of my evidence as had emailed it over to them to get that response
I’ve had the notification that my passport has been printed and sent (likely TNT) which has eased my anxiety somewhat however there is no tracking info – any experience of this anyone or do TNT issue the tracking info once it’s in their possession?
Yes I can empathise with you. I don’t think we will truly know but there is suggestion of 400,000 backlog and I can imagine trying to determine who should get priority would be a logistical nightmare, especially the people who didn’t renew as didn’t think it would go ahead.
As someone who has personally worked throughout this (running a psychiatric hospital) and had to quickly adapt and rapidly learn I do feel for them I have to say but the prospect of losing travel doesn’t help when waiting does it.
I have a trip on 31st July and 19th August. I’ll update when the passport is actually delivered.
My understanding is they will only escalate once the 14 days pre-travel date has passed.
I’ve just recieved a text informing me mine is now printed and being posted today.
Good luck with yours
I wouldn’t be worried as the only reason they registered mine today after 16 days was because I submitted some evidence to move things along, had I not then I think mine still wouldn’t be registered as received.
It may be worth reaching out to them stating the US government are asking for visa evidence and that might move things along quicker for you.
Good Luck
Hi all, thought I should post as I’ve been avidly watching during my experience. My case is an adult passport renewal at Durham office. I will update once it’s physically received.
Application history
Application approved 1:29pm on 21 July 2020
Documents received 9:42am on 20 July 2020 (They were signed for at Durham on 6th July)
Application received 4:10pm on 4 July 2020
Application submitted 4:09pm on 4 July 2020
It’s important to know I emailed HMPO and informed them I was travelling, I had to provide evidence to show that a flight was booked pre-covid. I luckily had an email still of a booking I had made previously. It appears they are only doing so if the flight was within 14days from you reaching out.
I sent the evidence on Saturday via email and by Monday my passport was registered as received and 24 hours later the photo and application accepted.
I will update when it’s physically in my hand with regards to time to print and be delivered.
I completed the passport application online.
