FAQ

Passport photo questions, Oak Park edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Oak Park?

Yes, you can easily take your own passport photo from your Oak Park home using a smartphone. Just ensure you have good lighting, a plain white background, and follow all federal guidelines. Services like Perfect Passport can help verify your photo meets all requirements before you print or submit it.

What size and format does a U.S. passport photo need to be?

The State Department requires your printed passport photo to be exactly 2 by 2 inches. The image must be in color, printed on matte or glossy photo-quality paper, and your head must measure between 1 and 1 3/8 inches from the bottom of your chin to the top of your head.

Can I wear glasses or a hat in my U.S. passport photo?

No, you must remove your glasses for your U.S. passport photo, even if you wear them daily in Oak Park. Hats and head coverings are also prohibited unless you submit a signed statement verifying they are worn daily for religious or medical reasons.

Are passport photos for babies and young children different?

The basic size and background rules are the same, but the State Department is slightly more lenient with infants' poses. No other person can be in the photo, so Oak Park parents often find it easiest to lay their baby on a plain white sheet at home to take the picture.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new photo taken within the last six months when renewing your U.S. passport. Even if your appearance hasn't changed much since your last Illinois driver's license or passport photo, federal rules require a recent image.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine passport processing currently takes 4 to 6 weeks, while expedited service takes 2 to 3 weeks. These estimates do not include mailing times, which can add up to two additional weeks to your total wait.

Where is the closest U.S. Passport Agency to Oak Park?

The closest regional facility is the Chicago Passport Agency, located about 10 miles east in the downtown Loop. You can only use this agency if you have urgent international travel within 14 days or a qualifying life-or-death emergency.
