You pick up an application ( the post office has them), fill it out, get a passport photo done, pay the fee ( I think it is about 75.00 now), file it, and in 3 to 6 months you will get your passport. It is good for 10 years.

If your town has a passport office, go there. If it is not near you or if your town does not have one, you should apply at the post office.

Try the sites in Related Links, below. They will show you where you can get one.

Can you obtain a passport from a city which is not your native?

Passports aren't issued by cities, they are issued by countries. In order to have a passport, you need to be a citizen of the country you are applying to. So if you are a British citizen, you get a UK passport, if you are a Canadian citizen, you get a Canadian passport. It doesn't matter where you were born, it's what country you are a citizen. If you don't have citizenship then you cannot have a passport. Ex: A Canadian citizen, who is NOT an American citizen cannot have a US passport.
