Hi friends. I just got my US passport back from getting it renewed due to a name change. I sent in my marriage certificate and I got my new passport back but I don’t have my marriage certificate. I am mildly freaking out. Should I be expecting it to come after the fact?

I believe they send back the documents separately. Or at least that’s how I remember it

OP - I do believe everyone has meant to indicate it will arrive under separate cover and after the arrival of your passport. And please don’t freak out about your marriage license. You CAN get a copy for your city registry. If you think you may need it soon, request online now. You’ll have an extra.

I understand. They are going to return it. You can get a copy if you needed to travel with it or present it prior to receiving. Don’t worry!

They sent my old passport and supporting docs back separately.

You are 100%, documents are sent separately due to the team that processes passports and documents are not the same. They would have hell if in error they sent someone’s passport and/or documents.

They send the supporting docs separately. I just renewed for one of my kids and the docs came back several days later in a separate mailing!

The only time I needed my marriage license was for the divorce.

Make copies of important docs going forward. Worst case you can order a replacement

Sounds about right coming from a CEO lol

Hello! Don't fret too much. Just wait a little more. They probably sent it in a different mail.

Almost midnight here and I'm cleaning my medicine cabinet so I can reboot having a regular skin-care routine.

Living 9 time zones away from home out of the US and watching the BLM movement there, unable to do anything concrete about it from here - this song I've listened to countless times, today about brought me to tears.

I really don’t mean this to virtue signal - just wanted to share a moment.

People with dogs: how did you get your dog used to city life? My dog is almost a year and half now (having lived the past ~5 months in the city) and he is terrified of the city. We used to live in the suburbs so much more quiet and low key. The cars going by, sudden sounds, bikes/scooters are a huge stressor, but more than anything it’s people - if he sees anyone walking or around him he panics and tries to flee. I can’t afford to send him to an expensive dog trainer and don’t know what to do :/

I can see short term changes but the way Amex has been aggressively marketing Platinum card, we just will have overcrowding of primary card holders 🤷🏻‍♂️
