That can be gaining or losing a LOT of weight, a passport picture that is near expiration (10 years), and thus the photo does not match an aging person's current appearance, or as is absolutely going to be the case with transgender individuals, gender identity that does not seemingly match the person presenting, NOR their (even recent) passport photo gender.

They can make these poor people's lives miserable. (Cruelty is the point).
