Posting here for traffic

Just filled out all our passport forms and I've put the wrong DOB for me and dh on one of the forms !!!!

Is there anything I can do to change it?

Sent it to my friend for her to confirm identities and she noticed it

Maybe have to contact the passport office advice line.
Whose application(s) is it wrong on?

dementedpixie · 28/04/2022 21:38

Are they new applications or renewals?

Probably (hopefully) won't make a difference to the applications as they are for the children rather than for you or your dh.

I did this for my son. It took me an hour on the phone with Passport Office to sort out. I spoke to 3 people until I found one who knew what they were talking about. I had to go ahead with the passport application getting the references (I had to guess the DoB I'd written ). Then I sent the old passports in as instructed with a copy of his birth certificate and a covering letter. Still waiting after a good few weeks. Bloody nightmare. They need better processes - we're not professional administrators. These things will happen.
