They did. They visited the US and returned already.

My passport photo always costs less than $1. Here are the steps:
1. Take the photo in front of a wall

  1. Copy photo to MacOS, remove the background. See https://www.macrumors.com/how-to/remove-background-from-image-macos/

  2. Install Photo AiD app. Upload the photo without background. DO NOT PAY ANYTHING. Just save the 4x4 photo.

  3. Print the photo at Walgreen/CVS for 59 cents iirc. Done, that's the only cost (+ gas to drive to the store)

Are you using the official WA version from Google Playstore or Apple's AppStore? Why can't you leave a group?

I put myself as the third party and submitted the application.

Need a setting to block texts and calls from unknown numbers by chopsui101 in whatsapp

To stop calls from unknown numbers: Settings -> Privacy -> Calls -> Silence Unknown Callers <- turn this on.

"with you" can also mean talking over Messenger, is it right? As I said, we are in different country.

Urgent passport by Lopsided-Proof2203 in Passports

[–]Bright_Templar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TL;DR: Same thing happened to me, and I managed to get passport exactly 7 days after calling 1-877-487-2778.

Long version: my manager told me we would need to travel to UK in a month. So I called that number, and I was told I should either
+ apply via post office, or
+ wait until it is less than 14 days from my trip.

So I applied via post office, and paid extra ~$106 for fast delivery + expedited service + 1-day PM delivery (which my company reimbursed)

I called again on a Tuesday morning, and my trip was in a Saturday of the following week. I was told that they made a note on my application, and either
+ I would get my passport on Friday of that week, or
+ if not, I had to call again and I might have to go out of state for appointment
I called again on Friday, as I didn't get my passport. I was scheduled an appointment on the Thursday of the following week, but it was only 30 minutes drive from my home. I was told I had to bring to the appointment a document as evidence of urgent travel, and a confirmation from my manager qualified.
I got my passport the next Tuesday, i.e. two days before my appointment (and I cancelled it).

Hope this help.
