Additional Information
The DS–5513 is questionnaire is
designed to help determine the
entitlement of passport applicants. The
DS–5513 is not designed to replace the
DS–11, Application for a U.S. Passport,
but rather to supplement the application
when the applicant initially submits
evidence that is insufficient to meet his/
her burden of proving entitlement. The
Department estimates that such
supplemental information will only be
requested for a small number of
applicants, estimated to be less than
0.5% of applications received annually.
For information on what documentation
is required when submitting a DS–11,
please refer to page two of the
instructions.
The DS–5513 is largely based on the
original Biographical Questionnaire for
a U.S. Passport, posted on the Federal
Register for public comment on
February 24, 2011 (page 10421) and
closed April 25, 2011.
Comments received from the original
Federal Register posting were
considered, and several suggestions
were incorporated into the current
version of the forms. The Department
split the form into two shorter forms:
the DS–5520 for identity questions and
the DS–5513 for entitlement. Both
revised forms assure applicants that
failure to answer every question will not
necessarily preclude passport issuance,
as the responses to the questions in the
forms are considered in their entirety.
In response to comments regarding
burden and privacy concerns, the
proposed forms amend many of the
questions to more accurately obtain the
information the Department is seeking.
For example, on the DS–5513, the
questions concentrate around the time
of the applicant’s birth and there are no
longer any questions seeking
information about periods of time
beyond the applicant’s 18th birthday.
The Department also received
comments that expressed concern over
the ability of an applicant who is
adopted or elderly to answer the DS–
5513’s questions on birth circumstances.
The form asks a wide range of questions
related to the circumstances and facts
surrounding an applicant’s birth in
order to accommodate the various
situations in which Americans are born,
whether hospital, home birth, noninstitutional birth, etc. The Department
realizes that most information an
applicant supplies for this questionnaire
surrounding his/her birth and early life
will likely come from other sources and
takes this into account during the
adjudication process. In addition, many
of these questions may not apply to

some applicants; however, in those
instances where the questions are
relevant, the supplemental form gives
the applicant an opportunity to provide
additional information that may support
passport issuance.
