The San Francisco Spanish consulate is holding my passport while processing my Visa. How do I travel internationally in the meantime if they have my passport? Is that possible for me to do?|||Hi Lucky,
The answer to your question is definitely NO! Even U.S. Diplomats, like myself, are not allow to travel to a foreign country that requires us to have a visa.
I assume that you are a U.S. Citizen since you also didn't state your citizenship! You also didn't mentioned if this is the first time that you are visiting this particular country. Your citizenship and the amount of time that you've visited a country also determines how fast your visa is process. Lastly, the process of your visa also can be a political issue between the countries! Some countries, especially the ones in which the U.S. has bad relationship with intentionally delay giving visas to applicants due to political turmoil between the countries. However, you must need a visa stamped in your passport to travel overseas since you will not be able to pass through customs. Even airlines now will flag you at the ticket counter if you do not have a visa to travel. You have no choice but to wait. I would suggest though for you to call the Spanish consulate to get a daily status on your visa. Usually, the consulates will give the applicants a general time frame of when he will get their visa. Happy travels! RCF|||you wait for your passport. simple. can't go through customs without your passport.|||You wait ... its a common problem
