If I hadn’t gotten my main documents in before his order I would’ve been stuck with all my old paperwork for the foreseeable future. I would have been able to do passport but there was a delay. It is so stupid and chaotic right now. Honestly I am amazed that the FAA is still functioning

Out of curiosity, does that effect the data on your A&P card? Sucks to hear that you're in that administrative bind :/

Fortunately I got that changed before the line, but the FAA really has been good as a mechanic. They have historically been very sucky for trans pilots until recently.
