2.30? :Shockked: It's 1.30 PM. You are better off trying from 1.20 PM and every time I tried so, I could get thru. There is no chance usually after 1.35 PM though.

Sorry, but am in Chennai too! :) And how do they differentiate online booking time for different cities?

Long story on why I need to change place of birth and mother name. To make it short, some 34 years ago, infants could travel on their mother's passport. Travelled as an infant several time on that arrangement. When I got my own after the rule was abolished, my mother's name remained as what it was before her marriage and she renewed her's with new name.

Also no birth certificate concept existed then. My place of birth was wrongly entered as what appears now. Considering I need to procure a BC in the future, won't it cause issues?

Good to know you are from Chennai too. The tatkal opening times as per city are mentioned in below link.
http://passportindia.gov.in/AppOnlin...ne/appointment
Also the error message I get when I try before 2:30 PM suggested I should try after 2:30 PM. At 2:30 PM the message is Unable to Process your request try after sometime. After 2:45-ish it suggests to try next day after 2:30 PM.

Fed up, called an agent. He promised to get it done in 10 days under normal quota. Lets see.

Thanks. I guess 1.30 worked for me as I was planning to get it done in Kerala. How much is the agent charging for you?

I booked an appointment for the Bangalore PSK sitting in Brisbane. All the system would check for is the city you are booking for, and the current local time vs the stipulated time for appointments to open.

Passport Application Is Under Review at Regional Passport Office.
Is above status is normal or I have visit rpo again :Frustrati

Do anyone has info on how many days Marathalli,Bangalore PSK is dispatching passport for normal applicant with no police verification these days ?.
Thanks
Amit
