With all the changes lately with the passport, it’s not surprising that many people are intimidated by application/renewal process. Here are two helpful tools for figuring out what forms or what type of passport are needed. Yes, that’s right – there is now a passport card and a passport book. http://www.travel.state.gov/pdf/ppt_pptCard.pdf
 However, if you are reading my blog – let me make it really simple – you need the passport book.
 The passport card is NOT allowed when traveling by air across US borders.
 If you are in the process of applying for a passport book and are confused about what forms are needed – check out the passport wizard! http://travel.state.gov/passport/forms/forms_847.html
 Just a reminder – ALL passengers leaving the United States (crossing the border by air) are required to have a passport book to board the plane. YES, this means even the youngest infant. My 3 year old son flies with a passport photo that was taken when he was only 6 months old and the passport is still good for another two years.
