Lost/stolen passport renewal. It has been 3 months exactly. I applied on the 14th of April and it is now the 14th of July. That is a little over 12 weeks. It is driving me crazy. I was told that an online application was the quicker option. My application is stuck on the day I asked someone to witness. When I track it online it says it is checking my identity. I have had 4 British citizen passports in my life it should be easy to check. I will have to go to the passport office and demand expedition. I have missed one flight so I am not booking another. It will have to do.
