 Passports

Passports

If you do not yet have a US passport or passport card that is valid until at least 6 months after your trip, you can use your birth certificate instead, either your original birth certificate, or a notarized copy of it. You can re-enter the U.S. with either a birth certificate or a passport.

A passport makes the entry a bit quicker, so if you can get one in time before your trip, that will be best. Here are some tips in how to get one fast:
 
An expedited service option, which takes 3-5 weeks to process your new passport, might be available, which costs $60 extra.   
  • How to Get my U.S. Passport Fast (state.gov)
If your passport is still slow in arriving, call the National Passport Information Center at (877)487-2778 between 8am to 10pm, Eastern Time.  You may need to call 50 times before someone answers the phone.
  • When someone answers, give them your passport tracking number, which can be found on travel.state.gov, and set up an appointment to meet with someone in person.
  • Bring to the appointment a second completed DW-11 form, a copy of your birth certificate, and proof of international travel, such as a letter like the one below, or a hotel confirmation, a flight ticket into Mexico, or an international driver's license. 
This is one of their offices:

     Fifth and Yesler Building
     300 5th Avenue
     Suite 600
