Anyone whose documents were received on 5th March? Mine is still processing. Documents were received on 5th March. Do you think this is a issue with my application? I requested my original documents back as I had travel plans(which obviously are cancelled due to the current virus problem) but I wonder whether getting my documents back may have caused an issue with my application

It's an Express Post with no signature required.

I am waiting for the Passport Card + my original documents.

The new passport looks of high quality!

Just wondering, was your online green bar was entirely full when it showed you that passports was being printed or in other hand, how many percentage was full when you got this information?

hey guys,

If someone fill application online, can system gives you opportunity to save application and print it out later from the shop outside. My printer is not working at home?
Can someone please assist with thanks.

Is it normal for application to be delayed few days? I am just worried as my application is still showing as being processed but the date of issue is tomorrow. I wonder if my application has some issue?

If you don’t mind, can I ask what was your previous passport? As in which country? Wonder if that has anything to do with issue time. Thanks.

How many days after getting the passport did you receive the original documents like birth certificate?
