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.

    Dated: December 15, 2010.
Barry Conway,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Passport Services, Acting Bureau of 
Consular Affairs, Department of State.
