Hi
Just wondering how other members are getting on with renewing their passports. The passport issue is no longer receiving much media attention, but as I understand it a back log still exists.
The department of foreign affairs state that they can longer guarantee the 10 working days processing and that applications submitted by Passport Express are currently being processed between 15 and 20 days of receipt.
We sent ours in on the on the 21st April and need to fly on the 20th May - exactly 20 working days later. Per the passport tracker our applcation has been received but not checked or approved yet, so am starting to get worried.
Anybody got advice or similar experiences and have got their passport within 20 days?
Thanks
