Filling out passport applications. Fucking nightmare if you were born overseas with a non English spelling birth certificate with wrong dates therefore the JP translation is wrong, citizenship paper's wrong and marriage certificate is wrong. This is going to be a nightmare to undo. Just ranting.

I did the change of name paperwork the other day, and apparently it'll take 6 bloody weeks to do. Before they closed the BDM office for some reason, it was instant.
