How to Contact US Dept of State

I have a name change related issue for passport. I have called several times but never got through, and also I received an error when I tried to email them a written letter through their website.

This is frustrating.

I should just visit their office, but I would have to take some time off from work.

If you are in the DC area...best bet would be to go in person.

You have to fill out a brand new form with $75 even for a name change for passport.

so if you are really just changing name - send off that $75, with mini passport picture and the form it's online

(of course I am talking with personal experience, do not take it as an official advise lol)

I have a special situation. I wanted to get in touch with them before visiting.

^I don’t know why you have problems contacting them over the phone… :frowning: I had called about 2 weeks ago and got through…

This is the contact link / phone number I called at…
