Hi all,
I submitted to renew my passport to Indian Consulate, New york. I have some queries which i would appreciate if i get some answers :
a) How long does it take to get the new passport ?
Quote from Indian embassy, new york website - " Question: How much time will this service take (in cases where the passport was issued from any other Passport Issuing Authority except CGI, New York)?
Ans: Six weeks or on receipt of clearance from Passport Issuing Authority, whichever is earlier. "
is it really six weeks as mine was issued by passport office, kolkata - India.
b) What is "clearance" from regional passport authority ?It says in the website that if the old passport was issued by some regional passport office in india , NY consulate would wait for a clearance from them.
c) they wanted two friends address in India who know me . I have given so , is it necessary that I inform them ? do they really enquire ?
