Abstract: The information collected on the DS-5504 is used to facilitate the re-issuance of passports to U.S. citizens and nationals when a) the passport holder’s name has changed within the first year of the issuance of the passport b) the passport holder needs correction of descriptive information on the data page of the passport c) the passport holder wishes to obtain a fully valid passport after obtaining a full-fee passport with a limited validity of two years or less. The primary purpose of soliciting the information is to establish citizenship, identity, and entitlement of the applicant to the U.S. passport or related service, and to properly administer and enforce the laws pertaining to the issuance thereof.
