[quote=RadarP3C;603738]Any number that is linked to my personal info and especially my birth cert. worries me. My wife had a problem with identity theft years ago and it was not fun trying to straighten that out.



I understand your concern over ID theft, I had a problem with it too. Spent alot of time getting straightened out. I had the same question a few years back and the National Passprt Center told me that the number is a random number that is assigned on the day the passport was made. There is a security tag in your passport that has all the info, not your passport number.
