No issues apart from putting wrong DOB on application. Spoke with online support who added a note. Did not delay process.

Should have been straight forward but accidentally put adopted son’s birth dad’s name on the ‘previous names’ section. Sent old passport off (which was already in his new name) with adoption cert, birth cert and covering letter to explain the mistake and to avoid delays. Had a call from the agent on day 11 to double check what had happened and she approved it straight after the call. Happy with the service and timescales.

Photo was rejected because my daughter smiled a bit so took a new one with neutral facial expression and got approval after 30 mins of sending it. The application was approved on a Sunday morning.

Took a week for the passport office to state documents received. We were advised up to 3 weeks from date documents received, had the passport back 10 days after status changed to documents received.
