I had the same confusion when I reached that stage. In my case, once citizenship was confirmed, the passport process felt more practical and less stressful, but only because I prepared properly. What helped me was reading a clear breakdown of the steps, especially about appointments, required originals, and timelines. I found

I still double-checked details with the consulate, but having that overview made the process feel predictable instead of chaotic. The waiting part is mostly about patience, not extra paperwork.
