We recently met with our adoption case worker (to update our Home Study and renew our Orphan Petition & fingerprints) who reminded us of an important item re: passports. Passport validity period must include the 6 months following return from China.
With that in mind, we have sent off our old passports for renewal. Effective January, 2007, a passport is now required for entry back into the United States from both Mexico and Canada.
Agencies are now buried in passport applications due to the many requests since the more restrictive procedure.
Passport renewal applications are available online at

Good advice-It is taking a long time for processing right now. It took almost 3 months to get Mia-Faiths back. Time to get all the ducks in a row !
Good reminder. It works the same her in Canada. I think I'm ok until 2009 but hey with the current delays I still may need to update my passport prior to travel. :o(
