Hello:
This is not exactly related to my passport application at the local post office yesterday but i thought it was interesting. I also doubt what the clerk told me was to be true since US naturalized citizens are from many different countries including myself from Taiwan. I brought my charge with me to the post office for passport application around 10am in Meridian office. I was asked by a Chinese Lady Clerk specifically to put down my place of birth as "CHINA" if i have plan to travel to China in the future because Chinese Govement won't give me a visa if my passport inditify myself as a "Taiwan" born US naturalized citizen. i told the CLERK that I have no intention to travel to CHINA now or future and I can't change where i was born.
Anyone from Taiwan or any other country was asked the same question?
It just doesn't add up to me.
Thank you
