  5. One Passport Photo
    • Passport photography services are offered by the Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller for the customer's convenience. Photos are standard passport size (2 x 2), full color, and meet all the guidelines and requirements of the U.S. Department of State for acceptance of passports. 
    • Passport photos are also available at most Walgreens, CVS Stores, and Photography Studios. Be sure to ask if they are passport quality photographs.
  6. Form of Personal Identification
    • The following documents are generally acceptable if they readily identify the customer:
      • Driver’s license (not temporary nor learner’s permit)
      • Certificate of Naturalization with identifiable photo attached 
      • Certificate of Citizenship with identifiable photo attached 
      • Government employee identification card (Federal, State, municipal) 
      • Previously issued Passport Book or Passport Card 
      • Official military identification card
    • A photocopy of the valid form of identification (ID), showing the front and back of the ID and provided on plain white 8 1/2 x 11" paper must be sent in with the passport application(s). Upon request, the Clerk and Comptroller's office can provide the customer a copy of the ID for a $1.06 service fee.
  7. A photocopy of the Proof of Citizenship on plain white 8 1/2 x 11" paper must be sent in with the passport application(s). Upon request, the Clerk and Comptroller's office can provide the customer a copy of the Proof of Citizenship for a $1.06 service fee.

Note: If you apply at an acceptance facility and submit out-of-state primary identification, you must also present an additional ID document. For example, if you apply for a passport in FL with a NY state driver's license, you must present additional identification, which may consist of a Social Security card, credit card, or employee ID.

What proofs do you need for a passport?

Proof of Identity must consist of one of the following: A valid Driver's License or State-issued Identification Card. A previously issued U.S. Passport. Government or Military Identification that has the signature of the bearer. A Certificate of Naturalization or Citizenship.

Is a passport card easier to get?

You can apply for both the book and card with the same application but it is not required that you obtain both. Note that there is no significant difference in processing time for a passport card versus a passport book. Both can be expedited, but some passport agencies do not expedite passport cards.

What is the difference between a passport and a passport card?

The passport card was designed for the specific needs of northern and southern U.S. border communities with residents that cross the border frequently by land. The passport book is the only document approved for international air travel.

Do I need both a passport book and card?

Both the passport card and passport book are proof of your U.S. citizenship and identity and thus can be used as an alternative form of ID. But, if you intend to travel outside those 20 nations or via plane within the next 10 years, the booklet proves necessary.
