You are getting at the point of how truly expensive this can all get, with checking-re-checking and certifying everything in sight.
I live with a system like that as a resident alien in Germany, heck, they even sent me a freindly reminder that my US passport was about to expire and it was illegal for me to be in the country without one. heck, I would’ve forgotten all about it and could’ve had problems trying to travel on my expired docuement…
no one can do paper work like the Germans…
