Q: Can a immigrant get a new passport after lost?

Good afternoon, I have a problem and I would like to know if you can offer me any option, my partner has been staying extended or has passed his stipulated permit for a year now. He had a CC that he lost and the passport was his only identification, if he shows up at the Colombian consulate right now in the United States, what documents do they ask for to get that passport again and if when requesting it they do an analysis of immigration status or others

A: The Columbian national must contact one's closest Consulate or Embassy to request the exact requirements for that document replacement.

A: If he has a copy of the lost passport that would be helpful. Also, he needs to obtain a police report for lost, stolen passport before going to his Consulate for a replacement.
