Yeah, I really do not know what is happening. I think it is the visa officer handling my paper. When I received my GCMS on September 6, 2013 there was a Application Assignment and Due date on October 25, 2013. I hope and pray that this is the passport request. Because every time there was a deadline on my GCMS notes I received a correspondence from them. At this point in time there was no pending document on my part beside passport. SO hopefully, I will get it on October 25 or hopefully sooner the better
