Obtaining passport in United States

# 21, as far as I know us citizens are still allowed to enter Mexico with just a birth certificate and an ID. But the problem is returning to the US.

She was born and raised in Coahuila. She did have a police report but that was submitted with the application . I suspect that took a little longer because it was a replacement , plus there is probably more demand for passports in the frontera region. It's still faster than getting one from the US.

I don't know what Longford/Masterson was referring to and I really don't care. But comparing Mexican and US processing times for passports is kind of meaningless. This article was about how the new law requiring passports for re-entry is effecting US travellers who had planned trips to Mexico and waited until the last minute to apply for a passport.

She actually showed up two weeks early and applied ASAP. Her six week shots were given at 4 weeks to prepare for the trip.By six months she really isn't going to look like her photo.

Lets hope it shows up by Friday or I may be taking an expected drive to Laredo. On a positive note I know have a Mexican plated car and could just buy a few days tourist insurance.
