I had my bike stolen yesterday.
I just had my passport photocopied and sent it to my uncle so that he could put my name down on the list for the driving course.
They both make sense?

Hi Guitar.
Yes these make sense. However, the more accurate way to express what you’re saying is as follows:
1. My bike was stole yesterday. (You don’t include the “i” because to the reader, it will sounds like you planned for bike to get stolen)
2. I just had my passport photocopied and sent to my uncle so he could put my name down on the list for the driving course.

Google "causative have."
I had a mechanic repair my car.
I had my car repaired [by a mechanic].
I had my passport photocopied [by somebody]
- - -
alternate use with passive meaning
Somebody stole my bike yesterday.
My bike was stolen yesterday [by somebody]. << passive voice
I had my bike stolen yesterday. << not a true causative
