Still no Passport
DC date was 27th Sept and my visa has been approved & printed but is currently sitting in the FED Ex drop box at the DOS.
I fly tomorrow and I can only hope that my passport gets here in time.
A lady told me that my passport should have been sent out last Thursday, but would you believe that it was still sitting on someones desk last night.
Anyway, for those with pending flights,I can only suggest you keep on reminding these people at the DOS, they seem quite polite and, to an extent, helpful. Even if they are a little absent minded.
