Passport Renewal HELP! Regarding Money Order Sent

Travel Forums General Talk Passport Renewal HELP! Regarding Money Order Sent

1. Posted by Princesselsa30 (Budding Member 2 posts) 1w Star this if you like it!

If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it. Today I sent out my package with application with photo, money order, and old passport - I just realized that I made the money order out to “National Passport Processing Center” and not to the Department of State. I’m so annoyed with myself for overseeing this.

Does anyone have any suggestions or think it will be any issue being that the money order is with my application which has all my correct info on it. The money order in the “from” section has my name and address but I did not include birthdate as it states to write. This is all on my application though. Thank you for any suggestions. I am going to try to call the customer service center if that helps any.

Until then I’ll keep checking the status and hopefully it will all be fine.

What country are you in?

Did you have a good return address on the envelope?

You could call your passport office and ask their opinion.

Hi thank you for your response! Yes all the other information is correct and I did put the return address on the envelope, application and money order.

I’m going to try and call them. I assume if there is any issue they will send me a letter or email.

I am in the US
