Those were the days. When one had to be at the immigration office way before 6.30am to queue for numbers. Then, to wait for hours for the name to be called. Applying for a passport was usually a whole day affair. Finally to collect the passport 3 days later.This morning,
At 7.45am collected the application form. Filled in name, address, Nric, marital status, date & place of birth, height and the signature. Waited for 0017 to be called.
At 8.15 submitted application. To collect in 2 hours time. Spend the time browsing through the Chowrasta Market and having breakfast.
At 11.00am holding tight to my brand new passport.

try to go at around 10.45 am to renew a passport. you will be last in the queue for sure but afraid not. you will avoid the early bird chaotic rushing and a shorter waiting time.
it works when tried in jervois road high com in sg.

HighComm in spore will take a week to get a new passport done. More convenient to get it done back home. Just 4 hours max. Unless the computer breaks down.
when did you last renew your passport at high comm? :-) i got mine by 4 pm within the same day.

Oops! must be like 5 years ago, when it was still at the hill st. Thereafter, decided that I should just get it done back at hometown.
