My passport saga

I sent what the state of Indiana considers a certified birth certificate with my passport application in (after being OK'd by the passport office here in Phoenix,) and one month later, a letter comes back telling me that it is not acceptable and gives me 90 days to submit something that they will take.:confused: If they don't receive anything, my paperwork will be sent back and I'll have to start over and pay again.:eek: Now what? Granted, the birth certificate is 52 years old but should that make a difference? I guess I'll send for a new one and try that but it just makes me mad. More money and hassle for nothing!:x Argh!

Same thing happened to friends of mine. They sent their originals and were asked for certified copies instead??? I heard that in August the new enhanced drivers license will be available at MVD. Sounds a lot easier and quicker.

Nah,
I guess I'll get a passport in case I ever get to go to Aruba. (One of my dreams) Thanks for the info, tho. I'm sure other people can use it.

Well, it finally showed up today. Almost 7 weeks. I'm gettin' there!
