Two questions on filling out the passport application form ds-11.

1. Can I use my recent naturalization certificate as both proof of citizenship and proof of identity? Or do I need separate things for citizenship and ID?

2. On pg 1, there's a white space where it says "stop! continue to page 2". This white space has space for the photo, ID information, and signature. So I understand that we do not need to fill this out now. But when we go to the passport agency, will they fill it out for us, or make us fill it out in front of them? I know we sign in front of them, but how about the ID information? Will we have to do it or will they do it? And will they staple the photo or should we?

1- You will also need some form of photo ID; at least I did in my case.

2- Yes, leave that blank. They will fill it out with re information from from your photo ID to verify that they saw your ID and then they'll ask you to sign it.

I had to provide a second form of ID, my driver's license, even when I was submitting a copy of it.

Certainly, you need a different document as proof of your identity, basically ID, as you mentioned. Speaking of the point 2, they have redesigned that page not so long ago, so it might seem puzzling. My suggestion is to use online ds11 forms to fill, like this one or another you can find on the travel.gov website. But then there will be no guarantee your application won't be rejected because of the deal with photo or something
