Hi,

I already have 70+ licence, due to expire soon, and a reminder/renewal
form arrived this am.

The new to me form, versus doing it online, seems a little confused. If
I go online, and begin completing, right at the end, it insists on you
having a valid passport #, I assume to grab a photo from.

The paper form, seems to not need a passport #, a photo, nor even to
insist you to return your expiring licence. You can just suggest you
lost or defaced it.

Am I understanding the paper form correctly - just complete the form, no
need for the old licence, no need for a photo?

They will have my original photo on file anyway, I suppose?

I'm on my third or is it fourth one of these. They were happy to use my
original photo without asking until now. This time they insisted on a
new one (as did my blue-badge lot). I tried doing it with my mobile
phone and printer, but they rejected it twice because it wasn't exactly
right. I finally went out and had one done. I don't have a passport
anyway and don't remember them asking if I did.

Thanks..

The online version seemed to demand so much more info.

My 82nd birthday is early next month and I applied to renew the licence
in February. I received my fourth one within 7 days of reapplying for
it.

Mine took less than a week to return and it's not my birthday until
tomorrow, So I've had my new licence (5th I think. I'm 82 tomorrow. )
for just over a month before I needed it.

My licence took a similar time from being collected in the post, to it's
return.
