Is it usual to ask for these passports? Is there any way round it without a good reason and does anyone know why they ask?
If you need it don't send it. Unless someone knows better I can't see why it should have any effect on your application for renewal. My wife didn't mention her Argentine or Spanish passports when she renewed her UK passport.
