i was thinking the same so does everyone in the end when its safe to travel really everybody wanna travel ( cause cannot tahan liao 1 yr plus didnt travel due to covid) then it will be even worst longer queue, systems down etc...

Renewed my passport online last Oct - very convenient!

How you renew online?

Is immigration office opened?

This is indeed interesting, I'll check it out when my passport expires in 2023. Maybe by then, they will get rid of even further red tape.

On the other hand, I checked out some of the citizenship by investment programs in Europe. I think they are ending the one in Cyprus and Malta, but Portugal's seems to be an interesting citizenship program: https://offlineversion.com/golden-visa-portugal/

I thought creating ten jobs could be done, but the other investment options are way too expensive.

Does anyone have any idea on if they grant the citizenship or not?

Unsure if immigration centres are open during this time, but it helps if you go super early - 30 mins before it opens. No brainer, it helps skip the long lines! Early bird always catches the worm!

cannot travel renew now also no use.. .wasted few months or maybe few yrs cannot travel... god knows when this pandemic will end...

Ya very true also, better just wait until everything is over, which will be in a few years time

better wait until the travel restrictions are lifted

May I check how long does it take for you to get your new passport after you have applied online?

If I remember correctly the next working day!
You can choose the location available to take your passport.

Hellooo
I am just researching, of course wont be travelling anytime soon.
I might travel only in 2022 but I figure not too early to research around so I can save money

I want to go to US, particularly Hawaii (cause its the nearest)

Right now i research about the travel visa. I just want to travel for holiday cause never been to US.

The weirdest part is that it says on the website that the passport will be sent to me, which kinda makes me hesitant cause im so scared the courier will be so simply and then my passport broken.
Does anyone know if I can just pick it up myself from the US embassy office? Anyone got experience applying tourist visa to US maybe can share with me here. thanks!
