All First Time or New Applicants need to have their applications authorized by local government officials called Acceptance Agents (AA). You need to take with you all the documents listed above.

• AAs are located in Post Offices and Courthouses around the country. Not every Post Office or Courthouse has an AA, and hours vary. Click here to locate your closest AA.
• The AA’s job is to witness the applicant sign the government form, check their ID, and seal some of the application materials into an envelope.
• The AA should write the applicant’s name, departure date, and date of birth on the outside of the sealed envelope. If two or more applications are sealed in the same envelope, ensure that all applicant’s information is written on the outside of the sealed envelope.
• Tell the AA that you are using DC DAATS to expedite the application. They must return the envelope to you. It is occasionally necessary to refer the AA to the Department of State’s “Hand Carrying of Executed Applications” policy, located on page 31 or 44 of their manual. If the agent refuses to return the envelope, call DC DAATS to have a representative assist you.

• Be sure that you send the government sealed envelope and the rest of the documents, arranged as listed in step 1. Any discrepancy can delay processing.
• The federal government requires that we submit your application within 5 business days of it having been sealed.
• Include a copy of an unsigned DS-11 form and a completed Letter of Authorization along with the sealed envelope
