I did mine over the new year. I needed to change my name as I got married. I applied on the 29th and received it back on the 6th. Frankly I was very impressed at how quick considering there we’re bank holidays! I’d just do it and then you know it’s done!

It’s very quick at the mo, mine took under a week.

As per Dr J above, if we get back to travel, I think a load of people will suddenly realise their passports are out of date, or don’t have the 6 months left Europe now requires, and it could be busy.

Thanks for this. Maybe I should leave it a few more days.
The way the emails we worded, I thought the sent documents were due sooner.

Are they sent via Royal Mail? I remember it being courier a few years ago. I’m not getting post at the moment so a bit worried if it comes that way and gets lost.

Chances are slim that he would need it much for long haul before Aug and for a lot of Europe he would need to have 6 months left anyway. I opted to renew mine just now while I don’t need it, I would be ‘losing’ the months by not using them anyway.

Have he got a valid ESTA on his expiring passport? If not I would do passport then new ESTA asap.

I might leave it a few weeks then, I haven't had post in over a week due to staff shortages and worried about things getting lost in the pile up.

Exactly the same as me - I have already done mine. My thinking was that you need a new ESTA. In the unlikely event this is refused, it can take many months to get a visa.
