Yours is on its way.............Just a little more wait.........

I think there is no up to date information on their system, as they are switching to new system and they can't update every thing on the current system with the pace applications are being processed. I think your application could be at more advanced stage than their current system tell you. Howeve...

Thanks Greenland I don't think my country will reply as I have already inquired and they told me they don't send any outside reports to other countries I'm from the middle east Maybe they have tried many ways, but they couldn't find a way to refuse you, and they said to themselves, hey o.k we will ...

Another thing if in case you have sent your Original Birth Cert to INIS then you can write them a letter to send your Original Birth Cert back they would send it back to you, our neighbor did that when his Passport Application was returned and got his Birth Cert back from INIS in 3 days. GOOD LUCK

No they would not accept Passport instead of Birth Cert, if you don't have Birth Cert then try to make a new one you have more than one month to apply for Passport. Send all the Original Documents they would send you back every thing. We sent them the same documents as they mentioned in examples inc...

No Sir you have to Submit your Birth Cert with your Passport Application it is COMPULSORY. Sorry to say but you are behaving like angelcountry, are you back?

Quick question for all who already got their passports: When did you get back your documents that were sent with the application form initially? Was it before the ceremony? Can you use the same birth certificate when you apply for the passport? I suppose you have to get it back from the Dept. in or...
