Determining your application type is crucial. First-time applicants will need more documentation compared to seasoned passport holders. If you’re renewing within 15 years of your last passport and it’s undamaged, you’re in the renewal express lane. Greenwood’s City Hall staff can quickly help you verify your specific category.

Hunt down every piece of required documentation like you’re solving a local mystery. You’ll need proof of U.S. citizenship (birth certificate), a valid photo ID, and a recent photograph. Pro tip from your Greenwood neighbors: make copies of everything before your appointment to avoid last-minute scrambles.

The DS-11 form for new passports or DS-82 for renewals requires precision. Fill out each section carefully, channeling the meticulous energy of Greenwood’s agricultural community. Double-check every detail – a single mistake can delay your travel plans by weeks.

Passport photos in Greenwood are serious business. The local CVS and Walgreens offer professional photo services that meet strict government requirements. Dress simply, avoid patterns, and ensure your expression is neutral – think professional, not party mode.

Johnson County residents can submit applications at Greenwood City Hall. Bring all original documents, completed forms, and be prepared to pay processing fees. Our local staff are experts at guiding you through each submission step, making the process feel like chatting with a helpful neighbor.

Passport fees vary based on book or card, adult or child status. Bring a check or money order – cash isn’t accepted. Current processing times range from 6-8 weeks for routine service, or 2-3 weeks for expedited. Your Greenwood passport journey is almost complete!
