Details worth checking
Eligibility Verification
Applicants often overlook verifying their eligibility before submitting the DS-82 form, risking rejection. Eligibility requires the applicant to have a passport that is undamaged, less than 15 years old, and issued when the applicant was 16 or older.
Complete Personal Information
Missing or incorrect personal information, such as names or birthdates, can lead to application delays or rejection. Ensuring your details are correct is crucial for timely processing.
Ink and Legibility Compliance
Using ink other than black can cause processing delays. The DS-82 form must be completed in black ink to ensure legibility and proper processing by the passport services.
Photograph Requirements
A common mistake is attaching a photo that doesn't meet size or background requirements, leading to application rejection. The photo must be 2x2 inches, with a white or off-white background, taken recently.
Name Consistency
Discrepancies between the name on the application and your passport can cause issues. If your name has changed, certified documentation must be provided.
Signature Presence
Forgetting to sign the application can result in processing delays, as the signature confirms your authorization.
Including Your Current Passport
Sending the application without your current passport can cause rejection as it serves as proof of identity and citizenship.
