Answer 1

There are two steps required to get a new passport. First, you must report your valid passport lost or stolen immediately. This is required of anyone who loses or has a passport stolen. The second step is to replace your passport. Both steps and forms required are described below.

    *  Fill in as much of the passport information as you can.

    * Answer all the other questions in detail.

    * Sign and submit above Form DS-64, Statement Regarding a Lost or Stolen Passport, to:

      U.S. Department of State

      Passport Services

      Consular Lost/Stolen Passport Section

      1111 19th Street, NW, Suite 500

      Washington, DC 20036

Answer 2

Whatever be your problem, but technically for the authorities, yo have lost your passport. So you can definitely apply for a new passport but before that you will have to complete exhaustive police and other inquiries and then only a replacement passport would be given to you.

Since you passport involves a name change, I don't think so you would be able to apply under tatkal scheme. But still I m not sure about tatkal. Check it out either with you agent or directly with the local passport office in your area

Answer 3

1. Report the matter for loss of passport.

2. Make affidavit

3. Apply for duplicate. Fee 2500/-
