It's been a long time, and this time I need help!

My daughter has a PIO card. Her passport has expired, I applied for new passport for her. the PIO card has old passport number on it. Now I need to travel in April, and just applied for new passport for her today. pretty sure won't be able to get PIO endorsed with new passport number.

Is it ok if I just cary both old and new passports and the PIO card. There is lack of clarity on internet, I am hoping someone has real experience with this and can shed some light.

thanks a lot friends..

Nishantbhai - We never endorsed anything. Every time we went to India in last 10 years, we just carried all existing passports for kids along with the PIO cards. Never had a problem.
