<p>What do I do when I have no passport and the deadline is 3d Jan?</p>

<p>You should plan ahead… :)</p>

<p>OK let’s face the problem. FA deadline is not that strict. Where are you from? You are still in your home country since you have no passport, correct? You should call the FA office on Jan 3rd morning (as soon as possible after 8:00am EST when they reopen their office from break) explaining the situation. Usually they will understand and give you an extension. Also, if Christmas is not a holiday in your country, apply for your passport TODAY! (They will likely be closed for Jan 1st so do it now!)</p>
