[Resolved]  TCS — Passport Delay

Dear Sir,

I am Mohammad Asif Ansari resident of Jamshedpur but have been settled in bangalore for more than four year. In the month of Nov-07 i got married and then i applied a passport for my wife Noorjahan Ansari from my home place, application has been accpted but after i waited for a 4 month i got a police verification, i came to know that as my wife is with me in bangalore so her passport could not be processed from my home town.

Then after completed her 8 month in bangalore (in two addresses) i then tried to apply from bangalore, but as still she was not completed her 1 one year so i was required to submit the pp from for all the addresses where she lived for past one year,
so i was required to submit 4 pp form, 2 for bangalore addresses (8 month) one for my home town (1 month) and rest(3 month) for my wife's home place and then i was successfully submitted her passport form on 15-10-08 with document # A02041208

Now from this date my endless struggle, pain and mental trauma started .

After i waited for 3 month my online status of application showed "my police verification is wating ..", i contacted my local police station cleared successfully, but still i had to receive a call from my 2nd address in btm for which i waited for 1 month. when
my status did not chaged i visited to comisionar office infantry road, they said they have sent a report,
and might be your other pp form had been sent to your native place and they are waiting to receive that.

but after 1 week my status become " my police verification report has been received by us and your application is in line for further process"

I was really very happy but also suspicious that how come they have verified only based on my current address.

anyhow the staus was same for 1 more month then suddenly the status become "Your file has got objections, which need to be addressed",

immediately i reported to enquiry counter and came to know they need a expantion of my father-in-law’s name which is MD and it should be "Mohammad".

i really exhausted as this problem is not with applicant name this was for her father's name, but how come i make her fathers name expansion "mohammad" instead of "MD'
and how can i submit document stating both name is same.

But his real name is "MD yunush ansari" how can i submit his full name as "mohammad yunush ansari" with documentory proof.
But luckily i found one old document where his full name was mention and submitted .

Then again after waited for 1 month name has been corrected and displayed in online profile.
But my struggle did not ended here it was just a beginning .

then i was just waiting for change of status which did not and after waiting for 2 weeks i got a letter from rpo mentioning
"i need to submit 2 copy of pp form for my previous address"

After knowing this i was really fainted as I know again it would take at least 3 month for finishing the verification .
But i immediately approached to the passport office and submitted the same with documentary proof (my wife's bharat gas connection details)

And was waiting for change of online status which changed after one month and showing "your police verification report has been received by us and your document is
in queue for further processing".


i was in complete doubt as i did not received any call from police officer from my previous address,
so i again approached to passport office for clarification, and you know in passport office even for simple query you have
to wait in the queue for at least 2-3 hour. so i left my house with my wife from brookfield at 6:15 am and reached to koramangala office at 6:45 am, and after waited in the queue for 3 hour counter opened at
10am instead of 9:30 am, anyhow i managed to talk to the officer, but they did not ready to listen my whole story, and within a min they checked my status and positively
told that they sent police verification form before 20 days and i needed to check with police officer .

Immediately i ran to police staion and did not found any report which was sent in the name of my wife, but even this i gave him a processing fee of Rs 400 to the police
and introduced my wife and told him to inform us when they receive the form.


Now it had already 45 days over after submitting my 2nd pp form but did not get any call or change of my passport status.

I am really disappointed with the current passport system which is not at all transparent and failed to satisfy the current need.

Now I am completely at a loss what to do now as my company has already told me to process my visa and still my wife’s passport had not yet processed.

I don’t know whether any concerned passport officer would see this thread and understand my pain.

Thanks
Asif
