First-time applicants need different documentation compared to renewals. For new passports, you’ll need proof of US citizenship like a birth certificate, valid government ID, and passport photos. Renewals are simpler if your previous passport was issued when you were 16 or older and is undamaged. Residents near the Nibley City Center can find helpful resources at our local government offices.

Collect all necessary documents before your application. This includes a valid photo ID, social security number, birth certificate, and passport photos. Our local post office and city clerk’s office can help verify documents. Passport photos must meet strict federal guidelines—size, background, and clarity are crucial.

DS-11 is for first-time applicants, while DS-82 is for renewals. Fill out the form carefully, ensuring all information matches your supporting documents. Mistakes can delay processing. Consider completing the form online and printing, or get assistance at the Cache County Administration Building.

Passport fees vary based on type and processing speed. Bring a check or money order, as many locations don’t accept cash. For Nibley residents, the nearest passport acceptance facilities are in Logan. Plan to submit in person for first-time applications, or mail renewal documents.

Standard processing takes 6-8 weeks, while expedited services can take 3-5 weeks. Urgent travel needs might qualify for even faster processing. Consider your travel timeline and budget when selecting. Local travel agencies near Providence can offer additional guidance.

After submission, you can track your passport online. First-time applicants will receive their passport by mail. Keep an eye on your mailbox and ensure someone can receive the package. Consider setting up email notifications for real-time updates.
