Obtaining a rush online American passport is best accomplished by using an independent online processing company. These companies charge an additional fee in order to provide an applicant with a new passport within as little as 24 hours. They offer varying turnaround times and different companies charge different fees for this service, so do some Internet research prior to selecting a company.

Using one of these passport-processing services is relatively easy. The applicant will fill out the standard government passport application in addition to an order form and possibly a waiver form required by the company. These companies have all the required forms posted on their Web sites and they provide step-by-step instructions for completing the forms. They also have customer service staff able to answer any additional questions that may arise during the application process.

Proper identification will also need to be provided to the online service agent in order to receive a rush passport. This begins with a copy of the applicant's birth certificate and it must be a copy from the city, county or state of birth. Certified copies that do not carry the seal from one of these entities will not be accepted.

The applicant also needs to provide documents that substantiate identity. A valid driver's license may be used. Alternatively, an applicant may provide a secondary form of identification. A city, state, or federal government or military ID card or a professional license may be provided to meet this requirement. The company and government Web sites contain a list of other acceptable documents.

This documentation and the passport application should be packaged with the passport photos and sent to the processing company via overnight mail, in the case of rush processing. Send the package via UPS or FedEx so that it can be tracked in order to verify its safe arrival. Tracking provides peace of mind when sending items of such a confidential nature as this.

When using a private processing company, the passport applicant will need to send two separate payments. The first amount will be payable directly to the government for passport processing. The second amount will be payable to the service company for their rush processing charges. The acceptable forms of payment are personal check, certified check, or money order.

The online passport services that provide the means to a urgent USA passport are all certified by the government in order to be allowed to perform their function. They work directly with the issuing agency to make this a quick and painless process. By going on the Internet and doing a quick search, all the service providers of this type may be found and compared.
