To get a U.S. passport fast, I would recommend using a passport expediting service. They would hand deliver your passport application to the U.S. Passport Agency and have it processed quickly. Some services, like RushMyPassport.com are able to have passport applications processed in 24 hours.
In order to expedite a new passport application you will need to complete the following steps.
Step 1: Contact and enlist a passport expediting service
Step 2: Gather your required documents, which would include:
- New Passport Application, Form D.S. 11 (electronically completed and printed from travel.state.gov)
- Two identical 2x2 color passport photos
- Government fee in the form of a personal check or a money order( fees vary,and do change. Confirm appropriate fee with your passport expediting service)
- Your original proof of citizenship (original/ certified copy of your birth certificate, or naturalization certificate)
- Photocopy of your driver's license or state issued ID
- Authorization letter that authorizes the expediting service to act as an agent on your behalf
-Travel Itinerary ( depending on how soon you plan to travel it may be required that you submit a travel itinerary showing planned international travel)
Step 3: Visit a Passport Acceptance Agent at your local post office or County Clerks office to have your documents verified and sealed ( placed in a sealed envelop to be opened by the Passport Agency
Step4: Ship your documents to your passport expediting service following their instructions
Step 5: Await your new passport.
