SUPPLEMENTAL QUESTIONNAIRE TO DETERMINE
IDENTITY FOR A U.S. PASSPORT
USE OF SUPPLEMENTAL QUESTIONNAIRE TO DETERMINE IDENTITY FOR A U.S. PASSPORT
This form is intended to supplement an application for a U.S. passport in the event insufficient evidence of identity is provided. In addition to
completing this form, you may be asked to provide further documentary evidence to support your identity claim. Documentary evidence
should contain your full name/photograph (with issue date) or full name/signature (with issue date). For more information on proof of identity,
please refer to page two of the instructions for the DS-11, Application for a U.S. Passport, or visit travel.state.gov.
FORM INSTRUCTIONS
1. To assist us in establishing your identity for a U.S. passport, please fill out this supplemental questionnaire and return it to the
requesting passport office. If you have been asked for additional information and/or documentation, please submit the
information and/or documentation requested with this supplemental questionnaire.
2. If you are unable to provide primary evidence of identity such as a previously issued U.S. passport, naturalization certificate, valid
driver's license, valid government-issued identification or another form of primary evidence of identity, please submit secondary
evidence. For lists of primary and secondary evidence of identity, go to http://travel.state.gov/passport and click on the link to
information for first time applicants.
3. Please complete the questions on this form to the best of your knowledge. Generally, the more information you are able to
provide, the faster we may be able to process your U.S. passport application.
4. If you are unsure of the answer to a question, please provide a response to the best of your knowledge. For example, if you are
unsure of an exact address, please provide the city, state and street name if you can recall them. Passport Services will consider all the
information derived from the form in its entirety.
5. Failure to answer every question will not necessarily preclude passport issuance, as the form is considered in its entirety.
6. If you have no knowledge of the answer to a question, please write "I don't know." If you believe a particular question does not
apply to you or your circumstances, please write "not applicable" or "N/A."
7. If you need more space to respond to a question, please write the rest of your response on a separate sheet of paper.
