I think this is a great idea and you have done a good job in your processing.

However, how do you get an "independent third party" to validate that your photos are true and factual representations of you and that the proper biometrics were met in the photo process.

Unless Homeland Security has dropped that requirement.

I know when I got me passport renewed in Honolulu, I had to have on the back of the photos a certification stamp and the signature of the photographer/processor/cut the prints to fit the passport guy. And my signature. And it had to be on a certain type of photographic paper.

Are these not requirements anymore? I know that things are pretty lax now that there is a new administration in the US.

Why waste money? - imobile

WHY does one need this?
I did my own via a D300, iPhoto, Graphic Converter and a bit of patience!
Even the Aussies accepted the result!

No such requirements - Gib Henry

I just renewed my passport, and had no such requirements.

There aren't any such requirements - grogware

There aren't currently requirements like these in the US. You can access the latest requirements from within the application.

I have one "minor" query... - Felix01

I recently renewed my passport through the US Post Office (before the administration change BTW) and there was no such requirement to have a photographer stamp on the reverse of the photo. I did have to sign it myself which presumably attested to me saying the picture was in fact an accurate representation.

Since this was a renewal and a picture was already on file and tied to the expiring passport, I can't say for sure whether there might be more strict requirements for first-time applications.

Another example of where Binny Boy has WON!
Homeland security?
