American living in Vienna, Austria. An insider secret for many of us who work for international organizations such as the UN, OSCE etc and are US Citizens, is to go to the British Embassy first! The US Embassy and Consular services are so pathetic (awesome people work there, just their hands are tied by the utterly pathetic broken system imposed above them).

The British system is 1st class worldwide. The US State Department is worthless everywhere.

With the U.S. State Department, EVERY CITIZEN IS LEFT BEHIND.
