New passport FAQs
How do I get a new passport?
If you're applying for a passport for the first time, you'll need to submit your application in person. Usually, you'll need to download the DS-11 form from the Department of State or pick one up from your local post office.

But with HelloGov, you can complete your application form online at home, upload any citizenship documents or supporting documents and then print everything off before your appointment. Your AI assistant will also help you by checking your documents are correct and that you've signed your application form correctly.

The usual processing time for a new passport for first-time applicants ranges from 6 to 10 weeks. But common mistakes like an incorrect passport photo can slow down the process even more.

When you complete your application with HelloGov, you can significantly reduce the time your application takes. We'll guide you through your application form, ensure your supporting documents are correct and correspond with the government to make sure that your new passport is processed as quickly as possible.
How much does it cost to get a new passport?
The cost for a new adult passport in the US starts at $190 which is set by the Department of State. However different passport services charge different amounts for their services. For example, an expedited service or priority mail express service will be more than the government's fee.

At HelloGov, a new passport application costs starts at $399 and covers every step of your applications from filling out the DS-11 form and uploading and checking documents to tracking your application status and delivery. Everything we do makes the process easier, faster and less stressful.
Where can I get a new passport?
New passports for first-time applicants must be applied for in person. You can apply at designated passport acceptance facilities, which include post offices, public libraries, and other government offices.

To apply for a new passport in person, you'll first need to complete the DS-11 form. When you apply through HelloGov, we'll walk you through the application form online to guarantee your completed application is in order before you apply in person. After that, we'll track your application, chase updates and keep you in the loop at every stage.
What do I need to get a new passport?
To apply for a new passport, you'll need:

  • A completed DS-11 application form for first-time applicants
  • Proof of U.S. citizenship (such as a birth certificate or naturalization certificate)
  • A valid form of photo identification (such as a driver's license)
  • One passport photo that meets the required standards
  • Payment for the passport fee and any additional service fees, if applicable
How quickly can I get a new passport?
If you've got a trip planned soon and need your new passport pronto, you can apply through expedited services. These services are designed to speed up the process but don't guarantee that you'll get your passport on time. Small mistakes on applications can cause big delays — simple things like uploading the wrong citizenship document can mean that you need to resend your application.

That's where HelloGov comes into it's own. Our AI assistants are trained to catch common errors and make sure your application goes through in time for your next adventure.
