This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

Hi, When I had submitted my Passport renewal application (H004118) at Delhi office on 12th Mar 2007, I was told that I would get my passport in first week of June, subject to documents in order and clear police verification. Documents were in order and police verification was done in second week of Apr. I have been checking the status online since June 5th. The status just says that it will be dispatched in a week's time. It is almost end of the month and I am still waiting for my passport. My travel has already got delayed due to this. Very poor service!

Hi,

I am Shreyash Mehrotra. I had applied for the passport for wife and son in the month of May, police verification was conducted in June and I am constantly checking the status on line. For my wife's passport, earlier it was showing me that passport will be delivered on 15 th July 2007. Now it's showing it will be delivered in a week's time. Now this message has been coming from last one month. My passport needs inclusion of spouse's name, which is showing, police verification report not submitted. My Son's passport got delivered in July itself.

I fully agree with the complaints posted in this complaint board.

I had applied for fresh passport along with my family members on 07.03.2008 vide my application no. z 094812 submitted at DPC Nehruplace.

Though status of my application is showing Police Report is clear. Application is under process from the last one month but I don't know how much time is required for processing.

I sent three e-mails to the e-mail address given in the site, but department does not care to reply at least.

is somebody in Passport office Delhi listening and initiating the much needed action at their end.

In the instruction booklet there is no mention for bringing the original certificates / documents for submitting the application for getting new passport. All it mentions is the notary / executive magistrate attested two copies of required documents with the application. But actually they refuse to accept the file without original documents.

My point is - If this is the real requirement, why it is not mentioned in the instruction booklet? Imagine the harassment to a person moving from Amritsar to Chandigarh to submit his application for passport, standing a in long queue for two hours and then sent back rejecting his file since he has not come with originals.
