and laws, and implementing regulations

CFR 51.20 through 51.28.
Methodology
The information collected on the DS–
11 is used to facilitate the issuance of
passports to U.S. citizens and nationals.

identity, and entitlement to the issuance
of a U.S. passport, and to properly
administer and enforce the laws
pertaining to the issuance thereof.
Passport Services collects information
from U.S. citizens and non-citizen
nationals when they complete and
submit the Application for a U.S.
Passport. Passport applicants can either
