| The Untalkative Bunny - Passport Photo | | 2008-06-19 21:30:02 | | I can surely relate to this as I still have to get my passport. However, I already have my passport photo taken. In this episode, Bunny wants to go to a good beach, so he/she tries to apply for a passport. However, he/she has to have his/her passport photo taken first. The scenarios are hilarious.

Getting paranoid about strangers slurping up your identity? Here’s what you can do about it. But be careful ..."
"4) The best approach? Hammer time. Hitting the chip with a blunt, hard object should disable it. A nonworking RFID doesn’t invalidate the passport, so you can still use it."

| It takes 6 months to get a passport | | 2008-02-14 10:42:49 | | I have been talking about visiting home for a long time, and was telling my husband that if I get lucky this Summer I would love to go-yes, that is if I have the money. Well, he said I don't even have a passport, so how can I do that? And it takes 6 months to get a passport. So, I am actually not talking sense, I can only wish for now. I am hoping that when our daughter Hannah is old enough for me to leave home, I will see getting a passport and visit the Philippines. I am the only one that can go since my husband doesn't want to let our daughters go along, he doesn't want to go either because money is tight. So, they will be left behind. It is sad that my family can't see our children, but I guess that is life when someone wishes to be somewhere very far away from home. I didn't foresee such...LOL, if I only knew. Okay, until here for now. | | By: Memoirs of a Filipina | | |

| Beijing 2008 Olympics - Visa & Passport Information | | 2007-09-06 16:07:37 | | All foreigners need an entry visa. If part of a group, the tour operator will often obtain your visa for you; group visas will usually be issued for groups with at least 10 members, and the guide accompanying your group will keep the visas. Individual travelers can apply at any Chinese embassy. The procedure is usually straightforward and takes about a week. If your visa runs out while in China, it can be extended by the local Public Security Bureau, the police. However, make sure you visit them before it expires, because you will be fined for overstaying your visa. A valid passport is required to enter China. China does not allow entrance if the holder's passport expires in under six months; returning home with an expired passport is illegal, and may result in a fine. It is a good idea to photocopy the page of your passport that contains your photograph, passport number, and other identifying information, along with other important documents such as visas, travel insurance policies, | | By: Beijing 2008 Olympics Blog | | |

| TCI Passport Requirements for US Travelers | | 2007-07-02 18:20:00 | | Turks and Caicos Islands Eases Passport RequirementsUnder Relaxed Travel Rules, Passport Application and Government Identification Only RequirementsTURKS AND CAICOS, BWI (June 28, 2007) – The beautiful islands of Turks and Caicos are the latest Caribbean nation to fall into accordance with the revised Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI). Revisions to the WHTI were created in response to the unprecedented backlog of United States passports. Under the temporarily relaxed travel rules, U.S. citizens who have applied for but not yet received passports are now allowed to leave and re-enter the United States by air. Although passports are not currently mandatory for the summer season, travelers still must present a passport application receipt and government issued picture identification (such as a driver’s license, voter identification card, or additional form of government issued identification) to enter Turks and Caicos.

| U.S. Temporarily Eases Passport Rules | | 2007-06-13 23:43:00 | | The U.S. State Department and Homeland Security Department have temporarily relaxed a rule requiring passports for air travel to Canada, Mexico, Bermuda, and the Caribbean from now through September 2007. The new provision allows travelers to fly to those destinations only if they present government-issued ID (ie: driver's license) and a receipt from a State Dept. website showing they had applied for a passport earlier. It only applies to travelers with applications currently pending, not those who apply in coming days.Learn more about the new passport rules. | | By: GoSightsee Travel | | |

| Passport Renewal Completed | | 2007-06-06 07:00:24 | | Two months after mailing my passport renewal application to the State Department, I received my brand spanking new passport in the mail last Saturday.
If you’re a terrorist or intent on forging your way into the US, stop reading now!
I was surprised to find little had changed with the design. My photo was apparently scanned, then printed on the page (vs. laminating it down), and plastered with a watermark so you can barely see my baby blue eyes. Countless border agents worldwide are going to lose out as a result!
I get a new passport number with the renewal. I remember a Brit in Guatemala last year pointed out to me, as I took out my passport to sign into a hostel, not knowing one’s passport number by heart brands a novice backpacker! What-ever. You should see the retarded number of username/password combinations I have to recall each day at work - let alone personal bank accounts and web site stuff. It’s ridiculous.
