Cuz it takes like a few weeks to process and get your passport and documents back…
If the government wanted to, theoretically, they could “accidentally lose” the documents…

I mean, I like that you’re attempting to troll, but it kind of falls apart with a simple internet search for “state certified birth certificate copy,” if that’s the “physical document to prove your citizenship,” you’re talking about.
Its not even trolling. If you are a foreign born American Citizen getting a new birth certificate isn’t exactly easy. This why I always have kept two copies of my Birth Certificate.
Your foreign birth certificate does not prove citizenship btw.
A replacement for Certificate of Naturalization/Certificate of Citizenship is $500
Ouch that’s an expensive backup.
Saying “it feels like a trap” is what prompts the comments about trolling. “This is dumb,” or “this is regressive and adds a tax on poor people who want to get a passport, requiring them to spend money to get copies,” are legit complaints. Some kind of nefarious plot? Unlikely in the extreme.
American government making things more difficult and expensive for minorities on purpose? Surely that can’t happen!
Thanks, Captain Literal.
Always welcome!
Oh yes. Let me get a copy of my birth certificate from the government to give to the government. No problem with that process. Very efficient.
Yeah, here the main certificate is digital, and it’s with the government.
Why would they ask for my birth certificate - they already have it.
I have derivative citizenship…
N-565 costs $500 to file
not exactly cheap
Exactly. “This sux,” is not the same as “it’s a TRAP,” hence the accusation of trolling.
I’m not saying its an literal actual trap, its more of a colloquial/casual way of saying things that some people apparantly didn’t get… 🤷♂️
Its like you know people say “the cat showing the belly is a trap” thing? Even tho not every cat would scratch you.
