Pésimo servicio y atención al cliente en el área de pasaportes
Una empleada totalmente ineficiente y grosera en el horario del medio día (12:20 pm - 18 Nov 2025)
Y no ofrecen servicio de fotografía para el pasaporte como indica en la página en donde se piden las citas.

Dirty and overrun with a tent block outside, but staff (behind bullet proof glass) is helpful!

I have often seen a Black employee discriminate against coworkers. I come here frequently and recognize the staff, some are hardworking, good employees. However, yesterday I saw a Black employee making a younger Latino male employee do tasks that were the Black employee’s own responsibility, treating him like a slave. This location needs to be investigated for racial discrimination among staff. I’m leaving this here today, but I will be filing a formal complaint soon.
