Clerk Of Circuit Court Saline County Passport Services

When applying for a passport at the Clerk Of Circuit Court Saline County, you will typically encounter two separate fees. The passport application fee itself, which goes directly to the U.S. Department of State, must be paid by check or money order. Cash and credit/debit cards are not accepted for this federal fee. You should make this payment out to “U.S. Department of State.” For the execution fee, which is currently $35 and paid to the acceptance facility for their service, the Saline County Circuit Clerk’s office generally accepts cash, personal checks, or money orders. Make sure to have separate payments prepared for each fee to streamline your application process at 19 East Arrow Street.

Once you’ve submitted your application at the Clerk Of Circuit Court Saline County, you can track its progress using the national online passport tracking system provided by the U.S. Department of State. You’ll need the information from your DS-11 application form, specifically your last name, date of birth, and the last four digits of your Social Security number, to access the status. While the Saline County Circuit Clerk’s office processes and mails your application, they do not manage the subsequent tracking. They can, however, provide general guidance on how to navigate the online tracking portal if you encounter difficulties, ensuring a smooth post-submission experience.

As of late 2024, routine passport processing times are estimated to be around 7 to 10 weeks from the date the National Passport Center receives your application. If you require your passport sooner, expedited services are available, which typically shorten the processing time to 3 to 5 weeks for an additional fee. It’s important to remember that these estimates begin once your application has left the Clerk Of Circuit Court Saline County and has been formally acknowledged by the Department of State. The team at 19 East Arrow Street recommends factoring in mailing times to and from the processing center when planning your international travel, and always checking the official State Department website for the most current timelines.

No, the Clerk Of Circuit Court Saline County does not provide on-site passport photo services. Applicants are required to bring a current, 2×2 inch color photograph that meets all federal guidelines. Fortunately, Marshall offers convenient options nearby. Red Cross Pharmacy Inc, located at 52 East Arrow Street, just a block away, is a reliable place to get compliant passport photos quickly. Another excellent option is CVS Pharmacy at 1000 Cherokee Drive, a short drive from the courthouse. It’s always a good idea to have your photos taken before your appointment to ensure they meet the specific requirements and avoid any delays.

While the Clerk Of Circuit Court Saline County strives to accommodate all passport applicants, scheduling an appointment is strongly recommended to minimize your wait time and ensure dedicated staff availability. Walk-ins are generally welcome; however, they are processed on a first-come, first-served basis, and during busy periods, particularly mid-mornings or after lunch, wait times can extend. To secure a specific time slot for your application submission at 19 East Arrow Street, it is best to call the Circuit Clerk’s office during business hours to schedule your visit, ensuring a more efficient and predictable experience for your passport application.
