Applied renewal online 16 April
Old passport signed for 20 April
Old passport marked as received 10 may
Approved 12 may
Printed 16 may
Received 17 may.

Had photo taken at local photography shop entered digital code which loaded onto passport online application.

Seems as others say once old passport is marked as received on tracker it goes through fairly quickly. Nearly 3 weeks waiting in the post room seems the biggest wait, sheer weight of applications it seems.

Signed for 20th April tracker as of today still saying send passport. ( Durham)

Over 3 weeks “in the post room” now is apparently normal. Did a check to see why I am still getting a send old passport message, that was the reply.
Mate T work submitted 10 days ago and his is recognised already. It’s pretty much evidential that there is a shambles going on.

It’s becoming being denied the right to travel now, how can anyone plan anything with this set up. Ridiculous.

Starting to think mine has gone wrong. Applied 16th April old passport signed for on the 20th. Tracking still says send your old passport 16 days on. Colleague at work did there’s a week later and has had email update to say it’s being done 🤔

Submitted renewal 16 April and old passport arrived on 20 April tracking still says send passport. Was hoping to go away next month beginning to look unlikely 🙁

I thought renewals submitted online would not take so long.
