The following question was presented:

We’re going to have us a good old fashioned race. This might take a few months before we find the answer, but here goes. On Wednesday, I’ll be submitting an application for a US passport. At the same time I’ll be mailing off my UK passport for renewal. Which passport will I get first?

Results:

UK was the clear winner with 60% of the votes selected from the following:

  • UK (60%)
  • US (40%)

Analysis:

The slight majority going for the UK. Interestingly William's experience has been the opposite, but we shall see. Both the applications were successfully completed and sent this past Wednesday. Neither of them have been expedited so I should get the full experience of each country's full length service.

The US passport won by a couple of weeks. Interestingly, I got a notification that my application was approved and the passport would be here on Monday. I later got an email that my passport would be with me in 4 to 6 weeks as I didn’t pay to get it expedited. It seems like it was accidentally expedited. I have both now, so and good to go.
