SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We are 

soliciting public comments to permit 

the Department to:

information collection is necessary to 

properly perform our functions. 

• Evaluate the accuracy of our 

estimate of the burden of the proposed 

collection, including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used. 

• Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected. 

• Minimize the reporting burden on 

those who are to respond. 

Abstract of proposed collection: The 

Affidavit of Identifying Witness, Form 

DS–0071, is used by the Department of 

State in making a determination of the 

applicant’s eligibility to be documented 

as a citizen or a non-citizen national of 

the United States. The form is used by 

Passport Agents, Acceptance Agents, 

and Consular Officers to collect 

information for the purpose of 

establishing the identity of a passport 

applicant who has not submitted 

adequate evidence with his/her passport 

application. The primary purpose for 

soliciting the information is to establish 

identity and eligibility for a United 

States passport, and to properly 

administer and enforce the laws 

pertaining to issuance thereof. Lack of 

identity information may result in the 

denial of an application for a United 

States passport. Inaccurate identity 

evidence could possibly result in 

issuance of a passport to a non-U.S. 

citizen or to someone using an assumed 

identity. 

Methodology: The Affidavit of 

Identifying Witness, Form DS–0071, is 

used in conjunction with the 

Application for a U.S. Passport, Form 

DS–0011. This affidavit is required to be 

included with a passport application 

only when the applicant for a passport 

is unable to establish his or her identity 

to the satisfaction of a person authorized 

to accept passport applications. The 

identifying witness must complete and 

sign this form in the presence of the 

person authorized to accept passport 

applications. 

Dated: January 23, 2009.
