Passport Issue



Recommended Posts

I am very close to making my final decision to proceed with the band in Mexico with Dr. De La Garza. I do not want to go down to Mexico alone. I want my wife to come with me.

My problem is that she is a British citizen. She is a permanent U.S. resident (green card), but her British passport expired. Does anyone know how long it takes to get a British passport and better yet does anyone know how to expedite the process?

Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Bill Kurtz:help:

If she is a US resident and has a vaid driver licence(USA) she should have no trouble crossing over into Mexico. I was banded in Aquna Mexico {Not sure of spelling} Ha! I only had my drivers licence. Make sure you check into it first.

If you are flying you need the passport, if you are on foot or car drivers license will work, but not for long. Google it like some else mention.

Good luck

I have a friend who has her green card yet is a british citizen. She just renewed her passport. I will ask when I get to work tomorrow, and then let you know.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
