Online Resources For An Expedited United States Passport Name Change
This is something that very few men will ever have to worry about, but a woman who has recently been married (or divorced for that matter) may find that as they are about to hit the road, their passport does not have the right name on it. It is important that the passport name be changed before the trip and even if it was mistakenly not done prior to the trip, it can still be taken care of rather quickly. Expedited Us Passport Name Change service is available and is only a mouse click away.
The entire process is very simple and other than a little running around, the Internet and the post office can supply all of the services and forms that are needed. If you have ever gone through the actual process of getting a new passport, rest assured that this process will be hardly as time consuming. It is more online work than anything else.
For any expedited passport name change, actual proof must be presented to the issuing agency. For most cases, this will come in the form of either a marriage certificate or court document showing the actual change. These documents cannot be uncertified copies or even notarized copies, and they must have the seal of the issuing body attached.
By going online and finding the agency that will be used for the service, the applicant can download any and all files that they will need. However, keep in mind that if the passports have less than a year left before it expires, it will be necessary to get a passport renewal with the new information instead of getting the old passport updated. This will require separate forms, but they are also all available online.
For those that need to have this done in a rush, there are services that are available that can make this process go very quickly, for a fee of course. Even if the court documentation is missing, there are steps that can be taken to make the changes that the applicant needs to have done. While we would all like to think we are perfect, even the best of us misplace documents from time to time and when there is a crunch in getting the details of the passport changed, it is nice to know that it can still be handled.
As with most services, the higher the level of service that is needed, the more money it is going to cost. For instance, there is standard expedited service that is fairly reasonable. If someone needs a passport within 24 hours, it can be done, but it will be significantly more money.
Many of the websites will also request color photos of you for the name change process. An expedited passport name change must be proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that the correct person is doing the changing. These photos allow for one more form of proof to be provided to the issuing agency.
Once everything is gathered for the expedited U S passport name change, the final step is nothing more than putting everything in an envelope and mailing it off. We recommend that an overnight service be used to do this as it will provide more protection for the U S passports documentation. Not only that, but the applicant will be provided with tracking information and will have the security of knowing exactly when their documentation was received and that the agency actually took possession of it.
