    Default How long do passport applications take?

    I done an application on the internet just now, and it will be posted tomorrow morning, so I should recieve the application form by thursday. Then I add the photo and relative documents etc, and will post it thursday evening. I am due to fly to Ireland around the 20th July, reckon I'll get it by then?

    direct gov is the best to have a look at.

    3 weeks for a first adult passport (16+) if you have had a passport before

    i'm taking you're over 16, if not, can be up to 6 weeks.

    I thought if you went to Ireland you could get away with a picture ID, like a driving license.

    Get an Oyster card or something, you're not too far out London so I dunno if you can get them, but if you go Scotland etc you don't need a passport I don't think
    That's why we seize the moment, try to freeze it and own it, squeeze it and hold it cause we consider these minutes golden.

    I have got an Oyster card, but they don't have photos on them so they wouldn't accept it I don't think :S

    I'm sure you can use an old expired passport for ID? Then it saves you sending off for a new one.
