Description

I wanted to get a new passport, thinking mine had expired, only to find out later that I simply could renew it (information not provided for me on their website). With the Capitol rotundo in the navy blue header and a .org URL, this company's website is designed to make one feel as if they are applying through the U.S. government. The application form is on the site as well as choices, each with an additional fee, for a passport book, card, & expediting fee. It relays the importance of not signing the form until it is taken to a passport agency, which is a local post office. Upon taking my form and "expired" passport book to the local post office, the moment I told the postmaster I had already paid for this online, he said I should not have paid anything. This company is stealing peoples' identities and we're paying them to do it. They make it appear legit, as if providing the form online to fill out is a service but there is absolutely no benefit of using this company because they do not renew or issue new passports and in tiny print: "myusatraveldocs.org is a private company unaffiliated with the U.S. Government. The service offers U.S. citizens a PDF editor and customer support to simplify the process of fulfilling passport applications for a fee. IMPORTANT: Passport applications must still be submitted through official U.S. Govt offices and/or websites. By paying for and using our private services you confirm acknowledgment of the above statements." After erroneously paying for their "service" I received this notification, also in tiny print at the bottom of the email: "Myusatraveldocs.org is a private business that assists its clients in the preparation of passport application forms prior to their submission to a U.S. Passport Agency. It is not an official government organization nor is it affiliated with any U.S. government agency. It charges a fee for its service of providing customer support and a passport form PDF editor, which isn’t offered by the government. Alternatively, the forms needed to apply for a U.S. passport can be downloaded for free from the government’s own website and completed manually, without this service." This is a fabrication because of course these forms ARE available by the government. I have contacted them twice and received no response.
