FAQ
Common questions
How soon do I need to use it?
The State Department asks that the form be submitted within 90 days after it's signed and notarized, so book close to the passport appointment.
What do I bring?
The completed form, unsigned, and your government photo ID. We'll give you a copy of the ID for the application.
I'm overseas. Can I still use you?
Yes, by remote online notarization, when the document has a U.S. connection: it is for a U.S. court, agency or other U.S. entity, involves property in the United States, or relates to a transaction substantially connected with the United States. Signing must also not be prohibited where you are, which you check locally. A document only for a matter in your country of residence does not qualify; a U.S. embassy or consulate or a local notary is the route for that.
Can the notary make the ID copy?
Ask when you book. Many of our notaries can make the copy during the visit.
