They’ve been holding them up in bureaucratic limbo, and at best you get a passport that misrepresents and endangers you anywhere you go. They refuse to process passports if they don’t believe your marker matches your ASAB, but then also say they aren’t processing gender marker changes.
At least, I’ve heard/seen enough reports that I’m not going to try it. Also, with the effort it took to change that info in the first place, I’d rather have a correct but expired passport than a wrong one
If you have dual citizenship why not renounce your US citizenship and stop paying US taxes? If you don’t live in the US and you can’t get a passport, there’s not much advantage to having citizenship.
I left. No regrets, just a lot of grief. As a trans immigrant, the US does not and has never represented me.
Fun fact, I still have to pay US taxes but I can’t renew my US passport. What’s that about taxation without representation?
What happens if you just don’t pay?
Why can’t you renew your passport? As a fellow expat I do it whenever it expires at the local embassy.
I’m trans.
They won’t let you renew your passport because your trans?

Oh I’ve considered it, and they just made it cheaper!
