Just doing the on-line passport application & there's a lot of questions about my parents & grandparents that I simply don't know. Like their DOB when they married their passport numbers etc

Being as I'm from a rather fragmented & dysfunctional family I have absolutely no way of obtaining this info. All I know is their names, occupations & erm that's about it!

Anyone else is a similar situation managed to get a passport without a problem?

I've never had a passport before.

Those questions are to check that you're a UK citizen. You are able to apply for their birth certificates and send those off with your application.

If you read this site thoroughly you will know what to do

However of you don't want to do that you can either

a) phone the passport helpline

Telephone: 0300 222 0000
Monday to Friday, 8am to 8pm
Saturday, Sunday and public holidays, 9am to 5:30pm

or b) use the online enquiry form
