Abstract of Proposed Collection

    The Statement of Non-receipt of a U.S. Passport, form DS-86, is 
used by the U.S. Department of State to collect information for the 
purpose of issuing a replacement passport to customers whose passports 
have been issued but who have not received their passport documents in 
the mail.

Methodology

    The information collected on form DS-86 is used by the Department 
of State to help ensure that no person bears more than one valid or 
potentially valid U.S. passport book of the same type and/or passport 
card at any one time, except as authorized by the Department. The 
information on the form is also used to address passport fraud and 
misuse.
    When needed, the Statement of Non-receipt of a U.S. Passport is 
either provided by the Department to the passport applicant or accessed 
online from the Department's website at www.eforms.state.gov or as a 
printable PDF at www.travel.state.gov.
