what if i still used my color green passport... is it ok or got a problem later on?
I just wrote a simply letter with our passport details, passport number, expiry date, date of issue and attach a photo copy of our passports that's it and dont forget to indicate your file numberHarry_Tang said:To sammy09:
May I know how did you notify the embassy when you change your passport from green to red?
Can you pls give me the exact address so that I'll know what to do since my passport right now is still the old green one. I'm going to apply for the new red one next week even though it will not expire until 2011.
Thanks.

Hi Beauty same case as mine. i was advised by my aunt to renew the color green passport to MRP (machine readable) while waiting for the PPR even if that will expire on 2012. Just to be sure.beauty said:help naman po... kapag nagsubmit na po ng passport for visa stamping need ba new passport ang isubmit? passport po kasi namin color green pa pero 2012 pa ang expiration... thanks
