re: Passport Help

Since you already started the process, *and* that you sent apparently the only legit birth certificate you have, you are screwed. However, you should probably get it back in time. Kids under a certain age have to apply for a new passport "fresh" even if they've had one before, and my daughter's came back in about three weeks.

Submit a photocopy of the front (and back, if there is printed information) of your original evidence of U.S. citizenship.

Go ahead and apply for a new birth certificate from the authority in your area. I've never gotten anything but the passport back.

If you don't want to submit a photocopy of your citizenship evidence, you may submit a second certified copy of your citizenship evidence, which we will keep.
