Peninsula Passport Fair Planned This Week

SAN BRUNO, CA — The San Bruno Post Office will be accepting walk-ins for passport applications this coming Thursday, a post office spokesman said.

The office will accept passport applications between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. Feb. 22 to accommodate customers who otherwise can't schedule an application, according to Augustine Ruiz, a Post Office spokesman.

To help speed up the process, customers should fill out forms ahead of time. The forms can be found at usps.com/passport. Information can also be obtained by calling the National Passport Information Center at (877) 487-2778.

To apply, customers must bring valid photo identification and proof of citizenship.

A current or previous U.S. passport, naturalization certificate, certificate of citizenship or a current driver's license, government or military ID are acceptable as identification.

Proofs of citizenship include a certified birth certificate issued by the city, county or state; a naturalization certificate or certificate of citizenship; or an expired passport.
