Filling out an application for an old-style passport

However, so that there are no hitches and misunderstandings during registration, before starting the process of obtaining an old passport, which will open the way for you to a huge world outside our state, weigh the pros and cons and decide which document is preferable for you.

Since you have the choice of the type of travel document, carefully consider the prospects you get by choosing one of them. Today there are two types of travel documents for foreign trips:

• biometric (new);
• old sample.

They will let you go abroad without problems with both the first and second options. The only difference is that the new one has a chip with the owner's personal data, which simplifies.

Many Russians, using their legal right to choose, specified in Article 8 of the Federal Law of the Russian Federation N 114, write an application for a familiar document without modifications.

If the immigration officers find fault with your passport without biometrics, you can file a complaint right away, since in this case, nagging is illegal.

Consulates and visa centers have the same attitude to documents, no one has the right to refuse you a visa due to the absence of an electronic chip in your passport.

How to get an old passport

The application for the issuance of a passport is located on two pages of one sheet. Two types of filling are allowed: manually or electronically.

The document with blots and corrections will not be accepted for consideration.

Manual filling should be done in capital letters only. Black or blue ink should be used. The finished document will contain:

• personal data;
• passport data;
• information about children;
• job information.

Before you start creating your own application, carefully study the example of filling out. In the process of entering data, you will encounter nuances, questions will arise, which the sample will help answer.

What does personal data include?

The application form for a passport begins with personal data. You must write your last name, first name and patronymic. No abbreviations are allowed. Everything must match the details of your internal passport. To indicate the gender, put the symbol "×" in the desired square. In the computer version, the letter "x" can replace it. Write your date of birth in the standard format: day, month, year.

Next, you need to write the place of birth - you rewrite the data from the Russian passport. Information about previous surnames is filled in only by those who changed this data. In addition to the surname itself, you should write exactly where the change was made, and the date of this event. If the surname has changed more than once, an additional sheet is provided in which you should write about each previous surname.

The sixth paragraph of the block with personal data is devoted to registration. You must specify the place and date of registration.

If you do not live where you are registered, you must also fill in the seventh paragraph, writing in it the address where you live. If we are talking about temporary registration, you must specify its period.

Data from the internal passport

In the application, in the block dedicated to passport data, you need to enter the number and series of your Russian passport. In this paragraph, special attention should be paid to the indication of information on access to information that falls under the category of special importance. We are talking about people whose profession involves their access to classified information and, as a result,.

If you belong to this category of citizens, you will be denied the issuance of an old-style passport or a sample with biometric data. It will not be possible to hide the data, since the information is being verified. Either way, you will get rejected.

What to write about work and children

Another section of the form is devoted to labor activity. It is necessary to consecrate the last 10 years of employment. Even if you were listed as unemployed, this must be indicated on a special plate. Those who have changed jobs many times during the specified period need to paint all this with dates. Education also counts. Breaks of more than one month should also be noted by writing "temporarily not working."

In the application, you need to write not only the names of organizations, but also their addresses. During the unemployed period, you must indicate the address at which you then lived. If you are retired, you also need to write your home address.

If, while working in the same organization, you changed your position one or more times, this fact must be reflected in the application in the appropriate columns of the table. Carefully look at the sample filling, how to do it correctly.

If you have not written everything yet, and there is no more space in the tablet, use the application form No. 2a and enter in it everything that did not fit in the main form.

The column on children is filled in if minors do not have their own foreign passport. If available, the item can be ignored.

All other columns will be filled in by FMS employees. All you have to do is date and sign. The latter should not go beyond the boundaries allotted for it. It is also undesirable for it to come into contact with these boundaries.
