To renew a USA passport while in Ontario, Canada, you can follow these steps:
1. **Prepare Your Application:**
- Complete Form DS-82 if you are eligible for renewal by mail. You can find this form on the official website of the U.S. Department of State.
- Ensure you have your current passport, a passport photo, and any necessary supporting documents (such as a marriage certificate if your name has changed).
2. **Passport Photo:**
- Get a passport photo that meets the U.S. passport photo requirements. Many photo shops and some retail stores can take passport photos that meet these specifications.
3. **Fee Payment:**
- Prepare the payment for the passport renewal fee. Payment methods vary depending on where you are submitting your application (mail or in-person).
4. **Mail Option:**
- If eligible, you can mail your completed application (Form DS-82), current passport, passport photo, and fee payment to the address provided on the DS-82 form. Be sure to use a trackable mailing service.
5. **In-Person Option:**
- If you cannot renew by mail (e.g., your previous passport was lost or stolen), you may need to schedule an appointment at the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate. U.S. consulates in Canada are located in cities like Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, and Calgary. You would typically submit Form DS-11 in person.
6. **Processing Time:**
- Processing times can vary, but generally, routine processing takes around 4-6 weeks from the time of application. You can opt for expedited processing for an additional fee if you need your passport sooner.
7. **Pickup or Delivery:**
- Once your application is processed, your new passport will either be mailed to you or available for pickup at the embassy/consulate if you applied in person.
For the most accurate and detailed information, including forms, fees, and the latest procedures, visit the official U.S. Department of State website or contact the U.S. embassy or consulate nearest to your location in Ontario.
