It is that time again for me to renew my cedula. It says everywhere that your passport must have 18 months left before it expires. I also have read they can be lenient if the country has a good reputation for renewing passports. Does anyone have any experience with this situation? I have 10 months on my passport and was going to start the process for a new one in January/February. I didn't think to take this cedula process into my timing consideration.
