I’m guessing it was the new birth certificate that set off the alarm. They want older documents to confirm someone isn’t attempting identity theft.

It might have been better to stick with the old b/c.

I think it’s always been true that one’s first application is the most “difficult” and requires the most documentation and review while renewal applications involve less red tape.I made my first application 40+ years ago and recall having to submit numerous documents.I would think initial applications *today* would be even more complicated.

Let your son take care of it himself. If need be, his school might be able to get him a contact at the Dept of State Passport office in D.C. for him to talk to.

[American in Israel]

Getting ready to shut the borders, on Americans.

The Rules for Radicals: Hold them to their own standards...

Any time Americans assert their rights of citizenship or the rule of law against, liberals make sure they are persecuted in the name of their rights and the rule of law as citizens or law abiding citizens.

Hence, sexually molest all Americans who pass through the airports and name American vets - the ones who risked their lives for constitutional liberty - the terrorists.

[The Great RJ]

However to vote the liberals tells us that no ID is needed and that there is no problem of voter fraud.

[Don Corleone]

Don’t worry about it. Pretty soon no one will permitted to leave Obama’s “Workers Paradise”.

[Wonder Warthog]

Call your Congressman’s staff. Expediting passage through this kind of bureaucratic BS is one of the things they exist to do.

When are you folks going to learn .... and forgo all the BS and red tape? Go to your nearest Mexican Consulate and mumble "card, amigo". If they give you questioning looks, just kinda walk around the room, talking to yourself. Say things like 'Taco Bell', 'guacamole', 'El Paso', 'obama', 'burrito', 'AK-47', 'Rio Grande', 'Harry Reid', 'chili' and 'jalapeno peppers.

BAM.... ~ BINGO ~ They will hand you a card that will get you onto any plane, into any U.S. Gov't building, first-in-line at the local food stamp office and and get you out of jail if arrested for child molestation.

Just imagine what background checks he could expect if he ever ran for president. </ sarc >
