    I even got it in less than 2 weeks without paying the fast turnaround service fee.

    one problem...

    THEY SPELLED MY FUCKING LAST NAME WRONG! #-o

    I have to send it back now and wait another few weeks. At least I don't have any travel plans.

    They did that with my work permit. Seriously, how hard is it to spell something when you're copying it from a typed form?

    Congrats!

    BTW: They hire monkeys to do their typing services.

    What if your passport was "accidentally" hit with a hammer? Would that break its RFID chip?

    I've always thought about getting a passport, I guess I'll need one here if I ever have to go to the states. It's always a possibility with my company (seeing how most of the software we deal with comes from Texas).

    Damn, I sent my passport on May 10th. It got delivered on May 13th and today, May 15th my new fixed passport is in my hands. I didn't realize the passport office used fedex for overnight shipments, I would of thought they would use USPS...
