Didn’t doubt that, but some nationality claims, and by extension passport renewals, are less straightforward than others. I worked a case where a same sex couple contracted a surrogacy company overseas (with their sperm and an ovule from a friend) and during the last trimestre of gestation that country outlawed surrogacy for foreigners, so the child’s birth certificate only has the non-biological surrogate mother’s name. We sorted it, but when that child gets their passport renewed, the officer will see notes about it, and they’re entitled to ask for further information.
