The Mission Viejo Library accepts passport applications by appointment only. Appointment hours are Tuesday and Wednesday from 1:30 p.m. to 7:45 p.m., Thursday from 1:30 p.m. to 8 p.m., Friday from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Time slots for the following week are posted on Fridays, and the library suggests checking the calendar often because cancelations open new appointments. The library's information line is 949-470-8420.

**What to bring.** The library lists these items for a passport application:

- Form DS-11, filled out before the appointment in black ink and not signed.
- Proof of citizenship, such as a certified U.S. birth certificate, a Certificate of Naturalization or a current or expired U.S. passport.
- Proof of identity, such as a valid driver's license, a valid passport book or card, or a military or government employee ID.
- Photocopies of the identification (front and back) and of the citizenship proof, in black and white.
- One color passport photo, 2 inches by 2 inches, taken within the last 6 months. The library offers a photo service for $15.

**Children.** All applicants must apply in person regardless of age. If the child is 15 or younger, both parents must be present and show acceptable identification. If one parent is unavailable, a notarized Form DS-3053 Statement of Consent from that parent can be used. Only one parent is required for an applicant who is 16 or 17.

**Renewals.** The library does not process Form DS-82, the self-service renewal form. Most renewals can be done by mail or online.
