Two Rivers Post Office Passport Services

At the Two Rivers Post Office, you can indeed use credit cards to pay for the passport execution fee. However, it’s important to note that the Department of State fee, which covers the actual cost of the passport book or card, has specific payment requirements. For that fee, you’ll need to pay with a check (personal, certified, cashier’s) or a money order payable to the U.S. Department of State. Credit cards are not accepted for this particular fee at the Two Rivers Post Office. There are several ATMs nearby, including one at Wells Fargo Bank on Washington Street, should you need to withdraw cash for a money order. Be prepared with these payment options to streamline your application process.

While appointments aren’t strictly mandated for minors applying for a passport at the Two Rivers Post Office, scheduling one is highly recommended. This is especially true during peak travel seasons or busier times of the day, such as midday. By making an appointment, you significantly reduce your waiting time and ensure that a passport agent is available to assist you and your child. To schedule an appointment, you can call the Two Rivers Post Office directly during their operating hours. Keep in mind that both parents or legal guardians must be present when a minor under 16 applies, and they must present valid identification.

Okay, let’s break down the cost of getting a passport. For an adult (16 and older), a new passport book will run you $130 as a Department of State application fee, plus a $35 execution fee payable to the Two Rivers Post Office. If you’re opting for a passport card (which is only valid for land and sea travel between the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and the Caribbean), the application fee is $30, plus the same $35 execution fee. For children under 16, the passport book fee is $100, and the card is $15, both with that $35 execution fee. And remember, that execution fee is payable at the Two Rivers Post Office itself!

If your child needs a passport, there are specific requirements to keep in mind when applying at the Two Rivers Post Office. For children under 16, both parents or legal guardians must be present to authorize the passport issuance, or you must provide documentation showing sole custody. Each parent or guardian needs to present a valid photo ID, like a driver’s license. You’ll also need to provide proof of the child’s U.S. citizenship, such as a birth certificate. If only one parent can be present, they must submit a notarized statement of consent from the non-applying parent, or evidence of sole authority to apply for the child’s passport.

Your passport photos need to be exactly 2×2 inches (51×51 mm) with the head positioned in the center, measuring between 1 inch and 1 3/8 inches from the bottom of the chin to the top of the head. They must be in color, printed on matte or glossy photo quality paper, and taken within the last six months. The background should be plain white or off-white. Most importantly, make sure your expression is neutral with both eyes open! You can get these photos taken at places like Walgreens on Washington Street in Two Rivers to ensure they meet the exact specifications before you head to the post office.

Parking at the Two Rivers Post Office is generally convenient, with a dedicated 15-space parking lot located directly adjacent to the building on the north side. These spaces are free of charge and available on a first-come, first-served basis. During peak hours, such as midday on weekdays, parking can become slightly congested, but turnover is usually fairly rapid. If the lot is full, alternative street parking is available along 18th Street, primarily west of the post office. These spots are also free but may require a short walk of up to a block. During the winter months, be mindful of potential snow and ice accumulation in the parking lot and on sidewalks, requiring careful navigation. During summer, the asphalt can get quite hot, so it’s best to wear comfortable footwear if you anticipate walking any distance. For longer appointments, consider parking further away on quieter residential streets like Jefferson Street, where spaces are typically easier to find. Avoid parking in designated permit-only zones to prevent ticketing. Utilizing the post office’s off-peak hours, such as early morning or late afternoon, can significantly improve your chances of finding convenient parking directly in the lot.
