Passports...

So, that means that we
need you to get one as
soon as possible. Passports can
take several weeks to arrive, so you want to be sure to apply for one as
soon
as possible. If you are unsure
that it will arrive on time, then please look into having it expedited
(there
is an additional fee for this service). To apply for a passport:

1)  
You can apply for one at your local passport
service provider (if you have

one).

2)  
You can apply for one at your local post office.

3)  
You can visit travel.state.gov.

Once you have received
your passport, or if you
already have one, then you will need to upload your passport information
onto
your Personal Profile Page under the "My Mobilization" tab, and then
under the
"Documents" tab. Be sure that you
enter in all the information that we ask for, as well as upload a copy
of your
picture part of your passport onto your Personal Profile Page.

This is a very important
part of your World
Race preparation and trip. Without
this information, we cannot launch you onto the field. Please
be responsible and have this
information available by the deadlines that we set.

Now that you have your
passport, be sure that
it is good for at least 6 months after your trip ends. (Ex: Your trip
ends on Jan. 1, 2011, then you need to be
sure that
your passport's expiration is July 1, 2011)

Also, be sure to have 4 extra passport
size photos
to carry with you on your trip.

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to
call or
email us.
