Request Details
Lost passport, needed urgently to assist sibling abroad who is sick, stuck and alone and needs assistance getting back asap
I can ONLY apply for a fast track passport which is 166.50 as I am totally estranged from my (parental) family and the form requires their full names, dob, passport numbers etc. To boot, one of my parents was not born in this country which means I’d need grandparents full details too which I have zero idea of what they are. My sibling is also estranged from the ‘parents’
I have already called the passport office to confirm what they would need to get a passport and they confirmed I wouldn’t need all the same details as the long-winded form. I already have all the necessary paperwork to get a fast track passport.

Expense policies
Expense policies
We accept claims for the cost of medications, food, transport to appointments, counselling and anything related to your transition. We also support trans, nonbinary, and intersex (TIN) folk with bills and living expenses. We do not currently accept claims for money for pet expenses.
If you are applying for the first time, please provide the first half of your postcode and a link to one of your social media accounts in the "additional invoice information" box. This is to verify your identity and prevent scammers from taking money from trans people.
Please also let us know how much you need (max. £60 per month) and what you need it for (eg. bills, food, debt etc etc) in the "additional invoice information" box.
We don't allow reoccurring grants set through open collective, we ask that you don't set your grant to reoccur automatically as it adds strain to our grant team and can create duplicate expenses.
