can you obtain a passport if you are on probation?

Answer 1

A person can still apply for a passport even on probation as long as it is used only after the probation period.

Answer 2

please read this from the US passport agency :
PASSPORT RESTRICTIVE ACTION AND FUTURE PASSPORT INFORMATION

Before any passport is issued, the passport applicant’s name is checked against a central name check system. A federal or state law enforcement investigative agency may request that a subject be placed in the passport name check system for notification before issuance even when there is no warrant or other court order. The written request should be sent to the Office of Passport Policy and Advisory Services (address below), and should include full biodata of the subject, the statute under which the subject is being investigated, and the agency address and phone number of the officer to be contacted.

A federal or state law enforcement agency may request the denial of a passport on several regulatory grounds under 22 CFR 51.70 and 51.72. The principal law enforcement reasons for passport denial are a federal warrant of arrest, a federal or state criminal court order, a condition of parole or probation forbidding departure from the United States (or the jurisdiction of the court), or a request for extradition. The HHS child support database and the Marshals Service WIN database are checked automatically for entitlement to a passport. Denial or revocation of a passport does not prevent the use of outstanding valid passports.

Answer 3

You have to go to the court in the city in which you are on probation, from there they can tell you whether or not you are allowed to leave the state, or the country. Your passport is not invalid just because you are on probation, if your probation states you can not leave the country let alone your own state, you need to get a written letter from the court that will allow you to temporary leave otherwise you are in violation of the terms of your probation.

Answer 4

there are no questions on criminal status on the application. final
decision is up to the state department. check with your probation officer on any restrictions on leaving the country. also, some countries have restrictions on entry of those with a record. - check their embassy or consulate.

Answer 5

I would assume no.
