        Hello guys, I need some advice regarding my passport application process.

        I applied for my passport on 27th February in Bengaluru. My police verification at my present address in Bengaluru was completed on 2nd March. Since then, whenever I check the passport tracking website, the status keeps showing: “File is under review at RPO Bengaluru.”

        After waiting for more than a month without any update, I visited the Regional Passport Office in Koramangala, Bengaluru on 16th April. The officer there told me that my Bengaluru verification was completed successfully, but since my permanent address is in Jammu & Kashmir, verification would also be required there. They said they would forward the file to J&K for further verification.

        Now the confusing part is that a few days later I received SMS updates saying:

        – “Item out for delivery”

        – “Item delivered”

        The tracking showed something being sent from Bengaluru to Jammu & Kashmir. But I never received any phone call or visit regarding verification.

        I checked with:

        – the local post office in J&K

        – the police station/passport verification office there

        Both said they haven’t received anything yet.

        So now I’m confused whether:

        – it was my actual passport,

        – some verification documents/file,

        – or something else entirely.

        Has anyone faced a similar situation with dual address verification or inter-state passport verification? Any idea how long this usually takes or what I should do next?

        Any advice would really help. Thanks
