Passport Problems

[John_10]

Just read the Telegraph. Very similar situation to ours.

The woman said Manila would let Maricris in, but on her return to the UK she would be refused. All the pages were intact. Just like someone opening a book and breaking the spine. The pages weren't falling out.

Maricris is going nuts. Instead of being with family, she has to run around the Philippines trying to get a new passport.

Quick up date Maricris Arrived in Manila spent 7,000 pesos one way trip got to DFA only to be told no one working today has to come back tomorrow.

First time I have ever heard her swear.

I'm sure everything will be okay. From the information you've given I wouldn't have thought the passport to be a problem. Anyway, good luck!

If it was me, I`d tell her to just try to travel on the old one and tell the UK immigration that it was not possible to get a new PP before her return.

What are they gonna do? Not let her in?

She would have a problem with that. There was news a few months ago about a young boy who was scheduled to have an operation in Thailand or Indonesia but wasn't able to check in because of a faulty or broken passport. The boy had to wait for a few days to get his emergency passport so he could travel.

John_10, I advise that your wife pays for a RUSH passport application. Pay the extra fees needed if you must, just to get things sorted out ASAP.
