They use DHL.Junior305 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 08, 2019 5:05 pmHello I am just curious about how a passport is mailed/delivered to a US address after an approved application? (USPS, FEDEX, UPS, ETC...)
I have a US PO Box and I would rather have a passport mailed there instead of directly to my home but the PO BOX only accepts mailings and deliveries from the Postal service so that is why I'm asking. Thanks!
I've seen the part in the application where they ask for explanation if I'd want them to send to an alternate address but since they use DHL I have no choice but to use my home address. Thanks so much.PleasantThebest wrote: ↑Fri Feb 08, 2019 5:16 pmThey use DHL.Junior305 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 08, 2019 5:05 pmHello I am just curious about how a passport is mailed/delivered to a US address after an approved application?

If you want it delivered to some other address, they usually require an explanation and proof of a link to that address. I recently did my passport application and had to respond (via email) with a signed declaration stating why I wanted my passport delivered to an address other than the one I live at.
You have to do the UK 45 x 35. I wouldn't take a chance by doing otherwise. After you complete the online application, it gives you the photo guide. There's a neat box on the form which you can use to 'test' your photo sizeJunior305 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 08, 2019 5:35 pmI've seen the part in the application where they ask for explanation if I'd want them to send to an alternate address but since they use DHL I have no choice but to use my home address.

One more question, I have the 2 X 2 US Sized Passport Photos, will the British Passport Authority accept those or do I MUST have the UK 45mm x 35mm?
Not sure where it's stated they are "swapping" passport.peacefultraveller wrote: ↑Fri Feb 08, 2019 6:05 pmAre USA citizens able to directly swap their passport to a British Passport?

I expect posters hold or have been granted British citizenship and now apply for their passports.
