I know this is really incredibly trivial context wise but, although it'll be ages before I can go anywhere, I'd love to renew my passport - it ran out during Covid when this thing (squamous cell maxilla in Jan 21 followed by nasal in April 22) kicked off but, having checked things, I have a problem.
Because my appearance /changed (! - most of maxilla replaced with quite a lot of my lower L leg), the notes say I need a new photo - unpleasant as I look weird but I can't have any "expression" Unfortunately, a few nerves/muscles were cut/damaged + mega tooth lost so I look as though I have a permanent scowl so I know any photo will not/cannot be accepted. Even worse, the notes also say that if appearance changes, another passport will be necessary. Of course I do hope that it will since am still holding out for some reconstruction + that some of the nerves might work - if only a little so my appearance is likely to change possibly several times over the course of even 1 year.
Question: is there anyone/any place where one can ask someone from the Passport Office +, since this must have happened to people before, what have they done?
Thanks in advance
