Can a learners permit be used for a passport or must It be drivers license?

Question

I currently asked a question about passports but I want to ask this as well because I am looking at the form to recieve one for the first time. I am reading that I have to show proof of identity and it says driver's license. I do not have a drivers license but a learner's permit which I figured would be ok since it shows my signature and picture but this form says no. When I checked on the site (www.travel.state.gov) it said driver's license but then also said state, federal id, which should include a learners permit because that is state. Can anyone help me figure this out? Is a learners permit just as good as a driver's license in this case?

Answer 1

You should either have your US birth certificate or your certificate of citizenship to obtain a US passport and a picture ID. You basically have to prove that you are a US citizen. A green card holder can get a driver's license and so can a foreign student with an appropriate visa.

Answer 2

The learners prmit and drivers license cannot be used
for a passport. A learner's Permit can be used for identification.

Answer 3

you have chose image identity -- a learner's enable shouldn't do it. and you have chose your delivery certificates and/or naturalization papers! you will desire to teach you're a US citizen, date & place of delivery, and which you "are who you say you're." and because you're under 18, you have chose your dad and mom' permission. they are able to bypass with you to the passport place of work to sign.

Answer 4

call post ofc, they may be able to help, some have an ofc to get passports in, then just go there and apply, if you need it in a hurry you pay a little extra and they can do a rush job..

Answer 5

neither of them will work, you would need your birth certificate and your social security card.
