Bonjour Djeneba,

Merci bien de ton temoignage. I'm sure folks from our Embassy in DC are reading these postings. Maybe the Embassador will allow them to give us some clarification. Have the fees changed between July 2002 and  August 2003?

Messieurs/dames de l' ambassade repondez svp!  J' espere que vous nous ferez le plaisir d' eclaircir cette situation. Ou je me trompes sur le montant que j' ai paye ou les frais ont officiellement change. Veuillez eclairer nos laternes. Entre temps je me ferai un devoir de chercher le recu que l' ambassade m' avait envoye. Je crois que je ne me trompe pas! je pense bien avoir envoye un mandat de $88.

>If you got your passport for less than $100.00 you were lucky! I applied for a new passport in August of 2003. I paid $153.00($135.00 for the passport and $18.00 for the id card) and they said it would take 2 months. It actually took 2 months and 2 weeks or so.

>Je crois que la soeur Fatoumata m' a envoye en prive par erreur sa reaction au probleme de passeport. Je crois que son intervention merite d' etre lu par tout le monde puisque le probleme nous concerne tous. J' espere que d' autres partagerons leurs experiences pour que nous puissions mesurer l' ampleur du probleme afin de decider les mesures adequats. Je sais que MaliWatch a deja initie des actions concernant la duree du visa (felicitation a maliwatch pour le travail de fourmis qu' elle abat sans tambour ni trompette).

>Fatoumata dit avoir paye "environ $150 U.S." a New York pour son passeport. Elle n' a pas precise le moment. Vers juillet 2002 j' ai paye moins de $ 100 pour le renouvellemnt de mon passeport, et cela c' etait passe apres la mise en circulation des nouveaux passeports  . Les frais ont-ils change?
