Infuriating passport saga!

October 9th, 2007 at 06:33 pm

DH is still trying to get a new passport.

Here is the story:
The US goverment issues 2 passports with the same number, so when we were returning from vacation last year, he was
held in immigration for hours in Miami airport.(he is a US born citizen, the only one out of all the people held there).
All that time they told me or him nothing! Anyway, after hours and hours, they finally told us that somehow another passport with the same number was issued (after DHs) But since he was there, they just punched holes in his passport, making it invalid. They said "sorry, have to do that" and that he should apply and get a new passport at no charge.

Of course the passport office does not care. Not only do we have to pay for a new rush passport, but also they refused to service him for the rush passport because he went 1 day before the 2 weeks traveling requirement for rush passport.

He has been to the passport office twice (arranging time off work for it) and will have to go try again this friday.

And this situation is completely their fault!

    That's horrible. Unfortunately, its not too surprising. They made the mistake, but he's the one who has to pay for it. Sorry to hear that you had to go through that.
