itzel 336 Posted October 23, 2012 Hi b923 When its the day of your appointment, take your passport and a copy of your certified birth certifcate. If they dont ask for it, its all right but its better to be over prepared then under prepared. Also, depending the day your appointment is, if you still have time, you might want to go and apply for a "matricula consular", a consulate id from the consulate of your home country. I applied for mine several years ago and I got it the same day, it did take a few hours but that ID has gotten me out of a lot of trouble. A consulate ID is considered an official government ID. Find out where your consulate is in your city and if its on walk in basis or appointment. Good luck and welcome to the fourm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JoseG 383 Posted October 23, 2012 If you have the time, I suggest going in before your appointment date to see if they will accept your passport and birth certificate, if they don't accept it, you will have time to obtain a different form of ID. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rickyerique 2 Posted October 23, 2012 All I took was my College I.D, a high school I.D just in case and my birth certificate. They didn't ask me for anything else. Oh and my bio notice. Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
