Re: passport

Interesting issue, but chances are, if you BOTH borrowed this money (you HAD to consent at some level), the embassy can get it all from either of you.

It's not their job to manage people's relationships, they just want their money.

If you received the benefit of the airfare, you could be responsible for at least part of what the Department of State loaned the two of you to travel to the United States. More information, however, would be needed in order to make a more definitive determination.
