New Passport Photo: Obtain a recent passport photo that adheres to the U.S. passport photo requirements.
Fee Payment: Pay the applicable passport fee for the name change and the additional expedited service fee.
Submission: Submit your completed DS-5504 form, supporting documents, passport photo, and fees to the nearest passport acceptance facility or agency in United States.
