ok...google away,lol

Unfortunately, that is not good advice. There are congressmen in the house, and congressmen in the senate

However I saw in another thread someone mention you should contact your state senior senator.

Well there you go. I'm not trying to be a jerk, I'm just not the one needing the info. Some just sity and wait and wait.... squeaky wheel gets the grease. You as a American citizen should know ur govt better than me, and know who to contact.

Your congress person is the person you've elected to be in the US House of Representatives, or your Senator.

I am probably one of the few people who had a quick turnaround with a passport in Montreal. Mailed it on a Tuesday and had it back in hand with a visa in it the following Tuesday. No holidays and we had already gotten out congressman involved so that may explain why they were so efficient. Good luck!

It shouldn't really matter which one you contact, just choose one from your district and go to their website. Generally they will have a section specifically for asking for their help with a government agency, there is a form to fill out and you fill it out and fax it in.

Actually, I believe a senator would be in the Senate, not the house of representatives.

Yup... joined in 1996. Oh he's a fancy man! he's second in command of the Senate.

Oi. Someone in another thread royally confused me.

The correct phrasing of the person to look for is the Congressional District Representative which IS in the house of reps but is most definitely NOT the senior state senator

any updates? jazzly - do you mind telling me how long it took once you sent your passport back in?

we sent in the passport, new medical and new police certificate 2 weeks ago and we haven't heard anything yet. i know 2 weeks is nothing since we've been in AP for 10 months, but we were hoping for a miracle that they would actually finish this up quickly.

thanks!!!

Montreal is very slow, when I sent my passports back to them it took 6 weeks. There really is no telling how long it will take.
