Securing a U.S. Passport, especially on short notice, can be a confusing process. Often times, figuring out where to submit your application, determining what application to use, and deciding when you need to submit your application to ensure that you receive your Passport prior to your travel date can be difficult. Additionally, changes in the law (see link to the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative Information below) now require those traveling to Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Bermuda to have a valid U.S. Passport (or Passport Card) to travel. If you require assistance with your efforts to secure your U.S. Passport, my office is happy to be of assistance to you.
If you need immediate assistance, please visit my emergency passport assistance web page for additional information or call my office at 661-254-2111 for immediate help.
If you are unable to secure the assistance you need from the following resources, I am happy to try to help you. However, I will need your written permission to help with passport issues. A Privacy Act Release form will need to be completed and sent with a detailed explanation of your request for assistance to on of my district offices.
