Common Passport Application Issues:

Q. Can I use the paper application that I find at the Post Office or download it from Government website? 
A. No. To expedite your passport application you must electronically complete the online passport application.

Other common mistakes:

• Missing barcode: if you have successfully completed the online passport application, you will see a barcode clearly indicated on the application.
• Please INCLUDE the additional $19.53 (rate as of 2023) for overnight return delivery service directly from the Department of State when appearing at the acceptance facilities (such as a post office) to have your application executed.
• Due to the new State Department's Covid-19 policy, Passport Visas Express.com is not collecting your new passport and/or original documents from the Agency.
