Question

My second name is written wrong in my passport what is the procedure to change it and how long will it take

Answer 1

There is a name change form you can get from the state dept. website.

I don't think you even have to mail in your passport, when my wife and I married, she got the name change form as a supplement to add to the back of the passport.

Answer 2

100 point proof of identity system, if a picture id (such as a drivers licence) and another official id (eg your medicare card) have the right name you should be able to get it changed in 3 days. Its really the same process as applying for a new one
