The key idea

Use the Department of State’s current passport and evidence instructions.

Read the lesson

The U.S. Department of State handles U.S. passport applications. Use its current official instructions for how to apply and which evidence to submit. Follow those instructions for original documents and their return. Keep a copy before submitting an original. This school does not arrange passport appointments or promise a processing time.

This is general education, not legal advice. Honest Path School is independent of USCIS. We do not file applications, decide your citizenship status, or promise approval. Government forms are free at uscis.gov. Use current official instructions for your next step.
