Sorry I’m late to the thread, but before I left for Turkey I worked in a small office that handled passport and visa applications. **Linty’s** situation wasn’t all that uncommon if the Passport Office didn’t have all the info it wanted on the original application. And not to denigrate the Post Office, but the clerks who had a good idea of what the process entailed were few and far between. Glad to see you got it all worked out, though!
