SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We are soliciting public comments to permit 
the Department to:
     Evaluate whether the proposed information collection is 
necessary for the proper performance of our functions.
     Evaluate the accuracy of our estimate of the burden of the 
proposed collection, including the validity of the methodology and 
assumptions used.
     Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected.
     Minimize the reporting burden on those who are to respond, 
including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of 
technology.
    Abstract of proposed collection: The form is used prior to passport 
issuance and solicits information relating to the loss or theft of a 
valid U.S. passport. The information is used by the United States 
Department of State to ensure that no person shall bear more than one 
valid or potentially valid U.S. passport book and passport card at any 
one time, except as authorized by the Department, and is also used to 
combat passport fraud and misuse.
    Methodology: This form is used in conjunction with the Form DS-11, 
Application for a U.S. Passport, or submitted separately to report loss 
or theft of a U.S. passport. Passport Services collects the information 
when a U.S. citizen or non-citizen national applies for a new U.S. 
passport and has been issued a previous, still valid U.S. passport that 
has been lost or stolen, or when a passport holder independently 
reports it lost or stolen. Passport applicants can either download the 
form from the Internet or pick one up at any Passport Agency or 
Acceptance Facility.
