Faculty Handbook

Passports

If you have a passport, check its validity!

For processing and information on passports, the East Lansing Post Office (on Abbott Road) can assist you. You will need a certified birth certificate for an original application. This also applies to your family members.

If you need your passport urgently, generally in less than three weeks, you may check out the US Department of State - How to get your passport in a hurry for the expedited service procedures and contact the Chicago Passport Agency. Chicago Passport Agency serves customers who are traveling within 3 weeks (21 days), or who need foreign visas for travel. The agency accepts applications only by appointment so you must call in advance. Chicago Passport Agency, Kluczynski Federal Building, 230 S. Dearborn Street, Suite 380, Chicago, IL 60604-1564. Hours: 9:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m., Central Time, M-F, excluding federal holidays (Automated Appointment (312) 341-6020).

Make copies of all important documents, including your passport, visa and airline ticket, and leave them with family. Only carry those credit cards and documents needed.
