Yes, it's a disgrace that it takes so long but certainly 10 months seems about average based on what we know to date.

Let's hope the process can be significantly improved for future applicants.

Thanks for making the effort to post your experience here. It'll surely be of interest to many.:xxgrinning--00xx3:

Is this a first British Passport?
Ours took 3 weeks. But there was a mistake with her name. Passport Office's fault, so we sent it back with a covering letter and got a new one four days later..... Excellent service.

Quite a different story when the child applicant is abroad

You must be very relieved ! :doh

Thanks for the helpful info though. :xxgrinning--00xx3:

My baby son is due (in the Phils) next month, so that will be something I'll have to attend to, sooner rather than later. :smile:

Yes I can imagine, I wasn't sure... that's why I was surprised it took so long when ours only took three weeks.
