It's a regular U.S. passport, right? Went through hell? You bring a couple of identifying documents to the post office, they take your picture and you give them money. If you expedite it, it's super expensive. That's pretty much it.

Concensus seems to be they may have gotten a forged one. Which would better explain the hassle. A normal passport is easy to get.

If it's that easy Mr smarty pants, then what angle and color do I sign my name?

Depends. Was their fringe on the flag at the post office where you contracted? Admiralty law can be confusing, but I hope you paid with a bill of exchange. Did you capitalize all the letters of your name? That is your corporate shell entity not you. Perhaps we should talk this through to be sure you properly utilized negative averment and truth language. This all assumes you've already issued your UCC-1 statement of course.

So I had to look this one up, and admittedly my patience for these rabbit holes peters out, but yes, it's most likely a regular passport.

I guess they do some SovCit shenanigans while applying and they think it makes it a super-secret diplomatic and sales-tax immunity passport that will 100% for sure you guys show up when it's scanned, especially when you wave it in front Darlene at Walmart who defintely has time for your bullshit. It's all been reinforced by the fact that different batches of land-transit passport cards will come with different numbers of asterisks towards the top, so they think there's a magic code there that is related to status and privileges.

I'm guessing they had to keep dialing back the crazy until the State Department was finally willing to process their application, and surprise surprise, our SovCit friend found that process onerous.

Easy for a normal citizen. Sovcit probably tries to pass a bunch of bullshit sovcit documents instead of the required ones.

Most of us do it online now.
