请教换护照的问题in detail

各位XDJM
刚看过关于换护照的帖子，可很多疑问没有得到解答
再发一贴 希望有好心人进来帮忙一下
谢先~~

1.护照到期日之前多久可以去使馆申请换发？
2.护照办好后是否可以邮寄给本人？
3.如果申请续的ID没下来 可以申请换护照么？（这点最郁闷~~）

等了~~

I take my experience for example:
1)My passport valid till 27-11-2007,but i have requested on 14-2-2007.Because i always thougt better earlier than later.
2)I asked the ambassador to send the passport to me per post,but they said it is not possible.
3)when i applied the new passport,the ambassador ask me if i have permission in Holland,i show the stick in my passport to them.(because i also had no ID yet at that moment)



Ps:it takes about one month.They called me to pick it up!

万分感谢~~~~~~~
