My sister found out in november that we have german ancestry and she did a lot of research to discover we were eligible for german citizenship. by May she found the right documents and at her fourth consulate appt, they submitted her passport application to come in 6 weeks.

so my generous sister sends me the documents, and I make an appt with my German Consulate May 12. I fill out my forms with my sister's help and study the documents, then at the appointment i realize i didnt have my US passport!! i left it at fedex while copying. i was so scared, but during the appt they did not need my US passport, the copy was fine, and they submitted my passport application there. i also got my US passport back from the store, thank goodness!

so btw i dont speak german, i am learning still. but when i was checking through the forms at the consulate, Sex said "Mannlich" and I was too nervous to realize that meant male, and it should say female. anyway i get my passport today june 10 and sure enough the sex is male ...

what should i do?? make an appointment at the consulate to change it? or just leave it and wait til 10 years when i renew? will the passport be accepted when i am traveling? am i going to get drafted?!

I am grateful to have the citizenship and for all the work by my sister . just a minor snafu. i appreciate any advice!
