Renewing driving licence.

I have a short period driving licence, which is due to expire (I passed my test 2 years ago almost, and it lasts 2 years).
I've recently had all necessary forms, and was wondering if anyone else who has had their licence renewed has encountered any problems whilst doing so. I go on holiday next week for a week, and plan to send all the forms off when I get back so I can send my passport (current licence doesn't expire until August), so I have a couple of weeks to send it off, so any advice would be appreciated.
I was just wondering, for example, how often they get in contact with your doctor/hospital consultant, because I don't really want any delays in this. Anyone had any problems?
Also, on the forms, it keeps referring back to "INFID" ("see section * on INFID"), but I have no idea what this is and whether it'll help me to see it? I've had no booklets or anything.
Thanks for any help.

You may find this page on the DVLA/Direct.gov website helpful:

It covers "When to expect your licence".
Oh, and INFID is not INFID but INF1D, the number of a booklet which the direct.gov website says covers help and guidance on completing the D1 application form. It is, seemingly, available at most Post Office® branches.
If anyone has had experience of any complications during this process, I'd like to hear them.
Thanks again Cruachan!
