Step 1: Obtaining A Passport

It takes 4-6 weeks to receive a passport via standard processing and delivery times.

The link below leads to a website that will tell you exactly what you will need when applying which is pretty simple--proof of US citizenship (such as a birth certificate), photo identification (driver's license) and a completed application that you may also print out there.

When I applied for my passport I did it all at a post office. They took the picture, accepted the application and everything. It was very quick and easy. Here is a link to USPS that allows you to search for a location near you that offers these services:

Please be aware, while applying for Harbor's passport I chose a USPS location that was listed and said you did not need an appointment to apply. I called ahead and was again told I did not need an appointment. When I arrived, I actually did need an appointment. Craig has to be present to apply for Harbor's passport and working around his schedule is pretty tough so I was not happy. Please call ahead and ask about appointment times so you don't waste your time like I did.
