The application was received through the ordinary postal system on 08 April 2011, rather than the priority Passport Express system operated in conjunction with An Post. Due to the present high level of demand, the turnaround time for non-Passport Express postal applications is currently approximately six weeks. On the basis that all necessary documents have been submitted it is expected that the passport should issue by 24 May.
