public record. Before including any detailed personal information, you

    Abstract of proposed collection: The primary purpose for soliciting 
this information is to establish entitlement for a U.S. Passport Book 
or Passport Card. The information may also be used in connection with 
issuing other travel documents or evidence of citizenship, and in 
furtherance of the Secretary's responsibility for the protection of 
U.S. nationals abroad and to administer the passport program.
    Methodology: The Supplemental Questionnaire to Determine 
Entitlement for a U.S. Passport is used to supplement an existing 
passport application and solicits information relating to the 
respondent's family and birth circumstances that is needed prior to 
passport issuance.
    Additional information: The Privacy Act statement has been amended 
to clarify that an applicant's failure to provide his or her Social 
Security number may result in the denial of an application, consistent 
with Section 32101 of the Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act 
(Public Law 114-94) which authorizes the Department to deny U.S. 
passport applications when the applicant failed to include his or her 
Social Security number.

    Dated: March 4, 2016.
Barry J. Conway,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Passport Services, Bureau of 
Consular Affairs, Department of State.
