![]() ![]() So I called back another hour later and finally talked to somebody who took my appointment for the day I needed it. Then they were not ready to take calls because their official hours had just started. I made my PP appointment as soon as I had my oath letter and had a similar experience - the hours on the website for my local Post Office don't match their actual hours, so I called back when I was told they were open. Hopefully they will have to come to my rescue and save me from this USPS stupidity. I think I will break a coconut and offer some bribe to Indian gods. Something is wrong with this whole system. For God's sake they hand write the names on the passport.Īnd in the greatest country in the world I have to run around to make an appointment. In India, Mumbai a city of 10 million people there is one passport office and it takes half an hour to apply through an agent and 15 days to receive a passport at home with a paltry sum. So I hope it will be worth this appointment. ![]() Me and my wife both have to take half a day off and my daughter has to miss school. On Wednesday she got a call from Sunnyvale post office asking her why she did not show up. My wife cancelled the appointment and rescheduled it at Campbell post office today. USPS would not extend the courtesy of another 10 minutes to us. Now I understand that it takes 10 minutes for one person and 20 minutes for maybe three but So she called the PO and found that she needs to make appointment for all of us and since she had not done that she would need to reschedule. While taking the appointment she said "I need an appointment" and did not say "Me, My hubby and little daughter". Luckily my wife had taken an appointment for Wednesday at Sunnyvale Mary post office. 4 people working and they cannot handle overflow? What is wrong with this country? We waited in the long line with my little daughter for an hour and then were told that the only lady that handles passport applications there was sick and not coming in.Ĭursing USPS we drove to next closest PO and reached there at 10.30am (This post office opens at 10am) We were told that they cannot handle this overflow and will not be handling more people. We went to Eastridge mall USPS early in the morning on Saturday around 9am (It opens at 10pm). This is interesting or maybe it is just my bad day?Īnyone gone through this same thing in Sillycon valley? So far I have visited 3 post offices without luck and called 4-5 post offices without getting anyone. You go there couple of hours late and the tokens are gone. Sheesh! This is like trying to get a H1N1 vaccine. Right? Looks like I have to go there and stand in a line.įew post offices who don't have appointment dole out tokens in the morning. If I want to maybe make an appointment for week days I should be able to call. One post office I physically went to didn't have a passport appointment for Saturday for 2 weeks but on normal days their schedule looked quite empty. Looks like someone is relaxing through the day at USPS passport office. If people can't get appointment how can they apply for passport. I keep calling post offices and most of the time getting weird messages. That's fine but how the f*** you get an appointment. Most USPS offices have converted to an appointment system. What I didn't realize is getting passport is a world of hurt in the Sillycon valley. Thank you.So far getting the citizenship was smooth sailing.
