Now - 5 weeks after he applied he gets a letter telling him that he needs to send a different birth certificate, 5 points of id and provide: every address he has ever lived at, every school he has ever atteneded, every job he has ever held and the names and addresses of every immediate family member.
Wouldn't be such an issue - expect we are going to Mexico in 15 days!!

Does anyone have any advice on how to speak to a real person to help get this expidited or how he can find out why his drivers license was considered invalid?

Thanks!!
God, how ridiculous. Everyone should get their children passports at birth (like my parents did). It's only the first ones that have these problems; renewals are simple. Contact your congressperson's constituent services office! This is your best bet!
