I am so excited about this!
No more paper applications. You can starting in 2027 apply all online including first time passport applicants. Game changer!

PASSPORT CHANGES: Beginning next year, U.S. citizens will be able to apply for their first passport fully online — no more paper forms.
Also, applicants can just take a photo of themselves through their phones and upload it — no more drugstore photos.
All of this will be done through the new platform America.gov which serves as a landing page that consolidates almost 30,000 federal government websites into one chatbot.
