Question on sequestering

Hi kmnalluri,

Was your and your wife\'s passport also told to be sequestred???
Does the fact that you got your passports back mean that those 300 pieces of mail *have* finally been decontaminated???

I am in a similar situation as you too.
 
Waiting for revalidated passports

My wife and I sent our passports on 20 Oct, received by DOS on 22 Oct 2001. Called and was told passports have been sequestered due to anthrax scare. Has anybody recevied the passports inspite of this info from DOS ? We are still hopeful, that we don\'t have to suffer.
 
Are there more like me!!!!

My application was recd by DOS on Nov 5th and reached washington only
on Dec 3rd. When i said the officer that my application was received by St.louis on 5th nov she says, it does not take a month for them to get it from missouri and it only takes about two weeks. She also told me that it takes 12 weeks from the date you sent it to missouri.
No more info. Did anybody have a similar situation ????
She cannot tell me when exactly i can receive it....
