Based on verified reports from Yorkshire applicants (last updated: )
First-time applicants need different documentation compared to renewals. If you’ve never had a passport, you’ll need to apply in person at an authorized facility. Renewals can often be completed by mail. First-time adult applicants (16 and over) must provide proof of citizenship like a birth certificate, valid driver’s license, and current photo identification.
Not sure which type you need? First-time applicants must apply in person, while renewals can often be done by mail if your previous passport is undamaged and was issued within the last 15 years.
Collect all necessary paperwork before your appointment. This includes a completed DS-11 form for new passports or DS-82 for renewals, proof of U.S. citizenship, valid photo ID, passport photo taken within the last 6 months, and payment for application fees. Yorkshire residents can get passport photos at local pharmacies like CVS or Walgreens.
Make copies of all documents before submitting. Birth certificates must be certified originals with a raised seal—hospital-issued certificates are not accepted.
Fill out your passport application carefully. Mistakes can cause delays in processing. Use black ink, print clearly, and double-check all information. For Yorkshire residents, the nearest passport acceptance facilities are typically located in nearby Prince William County government offices or post offices.
Fill out Form DS-11 for new applications or DS-82 for renewals. Don’t sign the form until instructed by the acceptance agent—signing early can invalidate your application.
New passport applicants must appear in person. Bring all original documents, not photocopies. The processing agent will review your materials, verify your identity, and witness your signature. Popular local submission sites include the Prince William County Clerk’s Office and selected post office locations near Yorkshire.
Passport photos must be 2×2 inches, taken within the last 6 months, with a plain white background. Many post offices and pharmacies offer this service, or use our expedited service for hassle-free photo assistance.
Passport fees can be paid by check, money order, or credit/debit card at the time of application. Keep receipts and track your application online. Fees vary based on passport type and processing speed. Most Yorkshire residents opt for standard processing to save on expedited fees.
Standard processing takes 6-8 weeks. Need it faster? Our expedited service can get your passport in as little as 3 business days with zero errors guaranteed. Call (800) 860-8610 to get started.
After submission, you can track your passport online using the application number provided. Standard processing typically takes 6-8 weeks. Expedited services are available for an additional fee if you need your passport more quickly. Most Yorkshire residents receive their passports via secure USPS mail.
Track your application status online at the State Department’s website using your last name, date of birth, and last 4 digits of your Social Security number. Updates typically appear within 7-10 days of submission.
