Families gather at the Old Orange County Courthouse for Santa Ana Passport Day.
Santa Ana is preparing for a Special Passport Day on March 29, aimed at meeting the rising demand for passport applications. Hosted at the historic Old Orange County Courthouse from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., the event will provide residents with the chance to apply for new passports and obtain passport photos in one convenient location. Families are encouraged to attend, with specific requirements for children’s passports. Appointments are recommended due to expected crowds, but walk-ins are welcome on a first-come, first-served basis.
Hey Santa Ana! Are you ready to pack your bags and grab your passport? If you’ve been feeling the itch to travel but haven’t yet sorted out your passport, this is your lucky day! Our city is hosting an extra Special Passport Day on Saturday, March 29, thanks to Orange County Clerk-Recorder Hugh Nguyen. This event is designed to meet the skyrocketing demand for passport services, so mark your calendars!
On that Saturday, the doors of the historic Old Orange County Courthouse, located at 211 W. Santa Ana Blvd., Santa Ana, CA 92701, will swing open from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.. That’s right – an entire day dedicated to helping you with everything passport-related, all in one charming venue. It’s perfect for anyone considering hopping on a plane for their next adventure!
So why the big deal? The decision to host this extra day wasn’t just a random thought; it comes in response to the overwhelming demand we’ve seen recently for passport applications. It seems like everyone is itching to explore new destinations after some travel restrictions, and this event aims to help you make your travel dreams come true!
Those of you with kids, you’re in luck! If you’re applying for passports for children under the age of 16, both parents need to be present. If your child is between ages 16 and 17, just one parent is good to go! This setup is fantastic as it caters especially to busy parents navigating the hustle and bustle of real life.
At this Special Passport Day, attendees will not only have the opportunity to apply for new passports, but there will also be spots available for taking passport photos. You can tick several important travel preparations off your list in just one place, which is a major win!
Before you head out, remember that it’s highly recommended to secure an appointment in advance due to the expected high turnout. If you haven’t gotten around to making one, don’t fret – walk-ins are welcome on a first-come, first-served basis. Just remember that the earlier you arrive, the better your chances of beating the crowd!
Don’t just grab your bags and rush out the door. Make sure to gather all the necessary items for the passport application process to ensure a smooth and stress-free experience. You can find all the info on what to bring and what the requirements are by visiting OCCLERKRECORDER.GOV.
If you prefer to chat with someone before the big day, there’s a helpful call center available to answer your questions from Monday to Friday, between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. (except for holidays) at the number (714) 834-2500. They are there to help you navigate the wanderlust-inducing process!
Santa Ana, this Special Passport Day is an incredible chance to get your travel documents sorted. Don’t miss out on your chance to get your passport and begin your exciting journey, whether it’s a quick getaway or the trip of a lifetime!
