Ready for the Passport Shuffle...

APPLYING FOR YOUR FIRST PASSPORT

I know, we have talked about this for over a year, however, many of us still do not have a passport. Here is what you gotta do...

To get your first passport, you need to go in person to a US Passport Agency.
Bring with you:
* Two photographs of yourself;
* Proof of U.S. citizenship (ex: your birth certificate);
* A valid form of state or Federally issued photo identification such as a driver's license;
* A passport application form.

Passport agencies are usually a post office, government office or public library. Also Federal Buildings in major cities or sometimes town halls. You may not apply for your first passport online. To find an agency near you, visit: http://iafdb.travel.state.gov/.

Your first passport will cost $97 if you're age 16 or older. Child passports last for five years and cost $82. They are good for 10 years.

HOW LONG UNTIL YOUR PASSPORT ARRIVES?
It takes six to eight weeks for your passport to arrive. So plan ahead.

If you do not already have a passport, apply for one now. That way when the opportunity of a lifetime to travel to far and exotic desitnations. You will be ready.

See you on the plane.

You Know You Need A Vacation When...
You spend your time at home thinking about work and all that you need to get done.
