I got my AMERICAN passport last week. Did you notice the CAPS & BOLD formatting in the previous sentence? Just wanted to make sure that everybody notices it since it is something that a lot of people including my parents who are trying to get hold of :) Dad had my passport application in the things that needed attention for a long time. When he saw somewhere in the Internet, that the cost of passport application is going to increase along with few other stuff, he sprang into action immediately. He gathered all the required documents and we headed to the post office the next day which was the last date when the old fee structure was valid. There was some confusion about how to take my picture and we went to CVS to make passport size prints of my existing picture. The lady in the post office mentioned that the picture background was slightly dark and she needs to take a picture again there. She was pleasantly surprised that the first one she took itself came well. She said that was something unusual for some one like me since it is difficult to make the babies look at the camera. In most cases babies will look here & there or close there eyes or sleep or do something that will lead to many more takes!
Now let me show of my analytical skills... My dad got his passport in his late teens while my dad's dad got his passport in his late thirties... I think i am getting things what my dad had when he was in his twenties and his dad in his forties... roughly two decades disappear when one jumps from one generation to the next! if this is the case then i should apply for a passport my kid in 10 yrs :) Is my logic right? I am not sure about other things but at least this goes well with my passport!!!
