Proof of Travel Departure

The U.S. government wants to see proof that you are leaving the country within the next two to three weeks.  They are more than willing to process your passport application very quickly as long as you have a real travel situation that warrants it being done quickly. 

The two types of “Proof of Travel” are the following:

1)  A flight itinerary from an airline or a travel agent showing you as the passenger and showing the international flight information.  A photocopy of this itinerary is sufficient.

2)  Company Letter of Expedite – this letter is to be typed on company letterhead and is intended for business travelers that have not yet booked their air ticket, but now that they will be departing the country on a specific day.  Please see this sample “Company Letter of Expedite“.
