Gross incompetence When I was turned back at the passport application office for a Naturalization Certificate discrepancy, I was first told that I had to replace it to the tune of $345.00. Not believing this, I inquired further only to be given conflicting information during a 5-hour marathon of ineptness. It was my 59 year-old husband who haphazardly found the federal form that stated no alteration was needed if the name change occurred through court order or by marriage. All you married women out there be advised!!!

What a joke! What a joke!! I have no idea why they even have people working there. They can't give you ANY information or help you in the slightest. My mother's passport app was received on Jan 12th. It's been "in process" since then. I called to check on the status and they told me to call back on Feb 27th and they could schedule an appointment for my mother to go into an office to have it expedited. Well, my mother called the passport office today and they still wouldn't help her. The rep told her that there are no available appointments in her area. She can drive to Miami (which is 300 miles away) or she can go to Detroit. WHAT?!? They are advising a 76yr old woman to either drive 300 miles or hop on a plane. This is sickening. My mother is leaving on March 12th and I don't think she will have her passport on time. What a royal waste of time!

Absolutely atrocious service Absolutely atrocious service. Passport was sent back incorrect twice. Made an appointment at passport office in DC. Waited over an hour after traveling 3 hrs to get there. Was then told to wait another 4 hrs for my passport. The woman next to me was sobbing because of the service she received. It's a disaster and poorly organized with no correct information for the public.

Not sure why they don’t have negative… Not sure why they don’t have negative stars….let’s recap! Customer waits on hold for two hours… Extra helpful worker: hi, how can I help Customer: waited 3 mo this for an online renewal with your speedy government website Extra helpful worker: what’s your application number…. Customer: oh thank goodness, some actual help, here it is Extra helpful worker: ok let me get you someone else that can help(put on hold) Customer: 10 minutes on hold….your wait time is 2-1/2 hours…. Huh Great job government! And Scott!

Ignorance and Arrogance Rules at the National Passport Center The agents are ignorant about their job. They create facts and use those facts to make decisions. They give conflicting information. They are ignoramnt of the law. They are arrogant and speak with no accountability. Wow, this must be the worst department of the federal government.
