The Papers Necessary To Satisfy Pass Port Requirements
Foreign travel has become very popular. When you travel anywhere, you have to be prepared ahead of time. This will include documents and you need to know about the US passport requirements.
A Passport Is A Good Idea
Gone are the days of just crossing borders as we travel. We are now required to have a valid passport to enter or leave a foreign country. And for that to happen, we have to meet certain requirements.
The DS-11 Document
For your first passport, you have to apply in person at an acceptance facility or a passport agency. This could be a Post Office or library designated to accept applications. The application form, the DS-11, is available online and can be filled out on your computer or by hand.
Passport Offices
After you have filled in your application form with everything but your signature, take it to either a Post Office or an acceptance facility. At that time, they will collect your documents and verify your signature. You will also pay for the passport at this time.
Paperwork Required
Documents that will be required will show your citizenship. Birth certificates from your state of birth are required to be certified, including both parents’ names. If born abroad, you will need a consular report or, if naturalized, you will need a certificate of naturalization.
Other Documents
Early public records along with a letter of no record will work as secondary evidence if you do not have your birth certificate. Some births are not recorded in a timely manner, within a year of birth, but delayed birth certificates are available. Again, this will be secondary evidence.
Infant Passports
If you have an American parent and you were born abroad, you will need other piece of paperwork. A statement detailing your parents’ history in the States and their marriage certificate is required. Proof of the American parents citizenship has to be provided. You will also have to have your birth certificate translated into English.
Copy Of Documents
Photocopies of the required documents will also be needed. Copy on one side of the page only and be sure that nothing else is on the paper. Be sure to copy both sides of all of your documents.
Passport Varieties
The fees for a passport will vary based on different criteria. The different forms of documentation you apply for include a passport book or card. You can also apply for both pieces at the same time. The fees for a person under sixteen will be less expensive. If you are in the United States when you are applying for your passport, you can also pay extra to have it expedited.
Passport Photographs
You will need to have a photo taken or can use one that has been taken within the last six months as long as it meets strict protocols. If you choose to do it yourself, make sure you understand what they require. If you use a photographer, be sure to tell them that it is a passport photo. The photographer will already know of the background colors and size requirements.
When you have all of your documents and your new passport application application assembled, you are ready to go to the designated facility. At the designated facility they will verify your signature and be sure that you understand the pasport requirements. After you have paid your fee, all that is left is the wait, usually four to six weeks.
