Boo hoo(:<BR/>@mampi: Such a lovely idea- I'd certainly like that. They take our fingerprints(for US visas at least) and photographs anyway- why don't they do just that?<BR/>@usha: That of course- the very though is painful. And when I can even be invisible to my husband (ref. previous post), I definitely need official proof of my existence! <BR/>@airspy: I was lucky this time- the new passport was delivered home before I'd even realised it, and the old one also came back pretty soon. Now all three have gone off for the Aussie visa. Let's see if we get it or not:)dipalihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01070862196307376073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6089956061483501286.post-27178782269086085192008-09-22T10:31:00.000+05:302008-09-22T10:31:00.000+05:30oh, the worst is when you have to renew your passp...oh, the worst is when you have to renew your passport. Along with the application you need to submit and send away your existing passport. <BR/><BR/>I had an agonising wait for two weeks, before the fresh and the old one arrived by teh good old Speed Post service. I kept tracking the status online for all thsoe weeks, smiled very nicely at the policemen who verified my credentials and such.Airspyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17731662994043369830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6089956061483501286.post-1674910802397739992008-09-22T09:37:00.000+05:302008-09-22T09:37:00.000+05:30hehhe.
