Lost passport and told it’s not classed as an emergency to renew at this time, but if I could get proper digital photographs could do on internet, is there anyone who can suggest anyone who can do them. I have also been told I cannot go to medical center unless emergency, I have prostrate cancer and due a blood test for my PSA to check on what stage I am at after radiotherapy will this be allowed ? Feel so insecure.
When I renewed mine last year I did it all online and took a pic with my phone against a plain wall and it was fine.

I was told the new rules were it had to be digital with a code on it which you get when you visit one of these camera boxes, what colour does back ground have to be I think there is a pasific colour ?
Do it online, the system will tell you if your photo is acceptable or not.
Re your test, if you have an appointment then check with your medical center to see if it's still valid, if so then of course you can go.
If not then get in touch with your doctor.
Try to stay calm and not get stressed, that's one of the biggest killers of all.

Did my all on line 2 weeks ago , fill in form , the site will check photo to see if acceptable, pay on line , send off old passport and mine was returned in 10days [ mine did not run out till may , but sent in when back in uk ] .
Much cheaper if you can get it sent to a UK address then get it sent on to Spain ...!

Hello John,
I don’t know about ordering passports online. Hope you’ve managed to succeed.
About the PSA test, I understand feeling concerned about that as my husband had prostate cancer. As you know the test results need to be read by your GP or consultant.

Perhaps you will be able to contact them for advice.
