The Service of Interior Undertakings has again revealed an expansion in the quantity of uncollected identifications, especially at their middle at Kyambogo in Kampala.
Talking on Monday, Interior Undertakings representative, Simon Mundeyi said they are presently stayed with more than 50,000 identifications which are uncollected.
“We have so many passports from 2019 up to this year. For example, this year alone, between January to April, we have 2000 passports which have not been collected yet they were applied for this year,” Mundeyi said.
He made sense of that the large quantities of uncollected travel papers represent a test to their storerooms.
“Since every day we have new applicants, having so many uncollected passports poses a challenge to our stores.”
Mudenyi said this aggregation of uncollected identifications is mostly because of proprietors not having the option to get messages requesting that they gather their reports.
“In some rare circumstances, the passports are ready, messages are sent to them to collect them but their phones are off or they don’t have network. If a message is sent and the phone is off or doesn’t have network, it will bounce and will never come back,” Mundeyi said.
Inside Undertakings likewise made sense of that the gathering of uncollected visas is additionally because of a plunge in product of Ugandan work to Center East of late.
“Most of these passports belong to girls who were supposed to be taken to Middle East and since business has nosedived, they lost interest in the documents as they returned to their villages.”
Mundeyi anyway asked whoever applied for a visa to pick it or really take a look at the Inside Undertakings site to figure out the situation with their reports.
