Hi baby_doctor, Unfortunately, the passports can NOT be collected in person. the only number to reach them is 0845 0105 200 (options 1 and 2, i think). Having your Case ID number handy will simplify the process of logging into your file. Also, if they confirm that your passport has been dispatched, ...

Dear Humanist! I don't think you'll get anywhere with this, mainly because you do not have this job yet. You could complain and write to HO around mid September that they are taking longer time to assess your case than permitted, which in my opinion will speed up the release of your passport should ...
