Hello Pat. Im confuseis your passport new or is it going to be expired? coz i thought its your fiancee visa that its going to be expired. as for me im holding the maroon passport as well and was done last year. of course the maroon passport was just released last year. anyway when i was applying for my flr last year, i didnt ammend my passport coz when i called the phil emb he said that they cant ammend a new passport coz its less than a year yet. so now im holding a flr visa with my passport not ammended. its still alright.
