I received a frantic telephone call from my friend Wanda. She couldn’t find her passport application papers. She and her husband were supposed to go to Japan in December. Now he will be the only one going to see his parents. My friend has never met her Japanese in-laws. She was upset after looking all over her house and in the file cabinet for her paperwork. She believes her husband accidentally threw them away. The paperwork was all filled out. All that needed to be completed was to take the application and passport photos to the post office. I can understand my friend’s frustration. She told me the stress was affecting her health.

Hi Shirley,
I totally feel for your friend. This may be redundant, but the forms are online if she is an American (I do not know about other countries) at http://travel.state.gov/passport/forms/ds11/ds11_842.html. She can do it on line or print it out as a pdf (I was able to type in the answers and save it).
Sincerely,
Ellie

That is horrible for her. I know a friend of mine who was sent plan tickets from her boyfriends family to come visit them and she couldn’t go because she didn’t have a passport. Her boyfriend and a friend of his ended up going instead.

Thanks Ellie and Holly for your comments.
@Holly: That is sad your friend didn’t get to go.
@Ellie: I will be sure to pass on this link to my friend. Thanks so much.
