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...

You guys don't normally have a passport? You said "apply for the first time"

    Late reply (took a long break from lemmy) but most people in the world do not have a passport unless they plan to travel. Applying for the first requires more documents, for subsequent applications (aka: "renews"), its just filling out a form (which could be done online nowadays I believe). If its expired for too long I think you have to do the "first time" procedure again.
