passport

hi
does anyone know if its wishful thinking to apply for a first passport 3 weeks before going abroad?

[dzug]

It probably is.

The passport office recommend six weeks for a first adult passport.

You cannot use the fast track service either - that's now only for renewals.

[spudqueen]

Why doesn't your friend apply for their passport? If they get it in time for this holiday then all well and good, if not then at least they've already got one for any future holidays.
