Hi, I applied for political asylum in 2009, was denied, 2011 Applied third circuit- denied,Appeal in 2012- denied.
My passport expired in 2005. Do indian consulate create any problem issuing passport to asylum seeker even if it is not approved? I have no ID so I need passport as valid form of ID to travel within US.
Any suggestions will be appreciated!
 
I'm fairly sure they will be very difficult. You might need to go through an agent who has connections, and who will NOT divulge your failed asylum bid, to get the passport. The agent might be able to get around this, and the fact that you're undocumented. The Indian government sees undocumented Indians abroad as an embarrassment, and would rather send you to India with a one-way-use authorisation letter.
