huangnon Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 In brief, my son's British passport expired last month, and I had forgotten to renew it. The application process says up to 11 weeks, and we have flights booked to the UK in early April, so I went for the "Emergency Travel document" option on the website. When trying to complete this application process, (after entering April flight dates), the application ends with a message "if you're not traveling for 6 weeks or more, you can get a full validity passport.... " This is contradictory with the actual (stated) full passport delivery of 11 weeks.? A bit frustrating, and the email reply I received from the HMPO office wasn't clear also. Any advice, please?

Upnotover Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 If they actually refused your/his application then wait 4-6 weeks and then apply again for an ETD. Get a new passport for him whilst in the UK. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
