Child renewal completed online. Very easy. Applied 16 April. New passport arrived 28 April. Excellent communication throughout.
I hope you don’t mind me asking – Which passport office was this dealt with?
When it says ‘processing time’, is this dated from when the documents are tracked as received in the Passport Office? or from when the delivery actually happened from Royal Mail to the PO?
