Passports- so when does yours expire?

efb

All this commotion in the Passport Office had me check my (passport's) expiry date.

Mines Apr 2014, when's yours?

yayamark

Mine is end of this month and flying out next month

If i was to post it out tomorrow how long would it take and if i was to go to cork passport office how long would it take?

alwaysadub

In 2019
They might just have things sorted back out by then...

It expired about 2 years ago. I been getting round in the boots of cars and cargo containers ever since. Been all around the world like that, not seen much of it, but been there.

I feel sorry for some but why leave getting a new passport until the last minute?

Mine has been expired for the last month or so. Sent it off in the post for renewal today. God knows how long it'll take until I get it back:pac:

Littleblondehen

They could be living abroad.
They could be required to travel frequently and not have 20 working days when they can do without it.
They might use it very infrequently and just not be aware of the expiry date.
Loads of reasons.

im too lazy to go and look for my passport to answer a question on the net

MagicMarker

Heard on the news the other day, they went through the queue at the passport office and some had genuinely sent off for new passports weeks ago but never received it.

Cherrycola

2018, but that probably means i'll have to renew it in 2015, cos in order to fly Aer Arann from Galway to Dublin i'll have to have at least 3 years validity left, and a signed affidavit from my great grandmother to show im not an Israeli terrorist in a bad wig! :rolleyes:

Actually, maybe we should all send our applications to Israel, they seem to be able to turn around an Irish passport pretty quickly.

robby^5

Mine has been expired for a few months now, was meaning to get it sorted...guess I'll have to wait.

Joey the lips

Mr. Pooch was flying to England with Ryanair and assumed driving licence would do, as it often has but only read the fine print week and a half before flight, hence big mad dash to passport office. Thank Christ it wasn't now! Fúckin Ryanair!!

2015 I think.

Already been through my husbands situation in the travel forum, long story short, passport pages full, still 6 years on it, he's based in the middle east, travels to places which need a full page for visa, needs passport for travel at least twice a month, takes 4-6weeks for application through Saudi, that was before the current action, he cant be without a passport for that long or he cant work, doesnt get paid, and we go hungry and end up homeless, only option was present in person for emergency passport, he flew home for 24hrs, 1000euro, got told to pretty much p*ss off at the passport office cos no one died.....he said, Not yet they havent!

So no, he didnt leave it til the last minute, and doesnt have a second passport for just this kind of eventuality. :rolleyes:

Where are you flying to?

SadieSue

I am living in Canada at the moment and I got my passport renewed last year. I sent it to the embassy in Ottawa and it came back in less than a week. Gotta love those diplomatic pouches!

Iron Hide

2012 for me, 10 year passport though so i look nothing like the picture on it!

TimTim

Renewed mine a few weeks ago. Don't need to be back in the passport office until 2020.

bazmaiden

Just seen this thread, checked my passport and its 5 months out of date!


Sh*t:mad:

TPD

2018, sounds so futuristic.

blue movie

2017 for me lots of time to sort out the wages of the folks in the passport office yet

Really Don't understand why people leave it to the last minute and it is kind of annoying too see them on the news giving out about how everything is so disgraceful.
I do sympathize with those out there that cannot go long without a passport for a long time and those who have genuine reason for getting it late e.g. the guy who spends alot of time in the far east but not everyone has reasons like that and there are those out there who know they are going on holidays in two weeks and think "ah its so much hassle getting a passport, il do it next week, sure there is an express service". Serves SOME of them right I say.

Its a very important personal document things like that shouldn't be left to chance.

Sephiroth_dude

2016 thankfully.

ghostdancer

don't know.
it was stolen 2 weeks ago.

just as well i'm not supposed to be flying anywhere this weekend and the passport office aren't a bunch of lazy *****, and only giving emergency passports to people who've to travel for a family death....

Diageio_Man

Left 17 working days to get my passport as i was traveling to england 2 weeks ago, long story short the assholes at the passport office diddnt process it in time so i had to get the bus and ferry over. But they kindly informed me while i was on the bus to rosslare that i could collect my passport the next day,
My original flight was at 6am the next morning so that was still no use to me, i hope i never have to get the bus and ferry to england again it took 20 hours to get were i needed. Plus on the ferry on the way over a group of pikeys decided to have a bar brawl mid transit battering each other.

MaybeLogic

Just got a new one in December, so I'm good for almost ten years.
The last one broke, from keeping it my back pocket so much, the two ends of the plastic card broke and then I was booking into a hotel in Austria in April and the receptionist snapped the whole thing off, so I had it stuck together with sellotape for 7/8 months and I'd just tell immigration officers it happened the day before, fixing it next week, whenever one of them happened to spot it.
They don't make 'em like they used to.

Ha I'll pass on the message!:p

It is a bit ridiculous though, I mean I'm all for workers rights and honoring wage agreements etc. but when its affecting this many people from leaving the country something really has to be done...
