The fun part is that the Department of State will send them a letter saying, "you can either provide a birth certificate or not, but we're keeping your money either way." Also, if the parent tries to "correct" their own passport, they'll get a different letter that says, "you can have the same regular ass passport you already have or you can have nothing, aaand we're keeping your money either way."

So I guess enjoy spending like $300 for nothing.
