What is the process for filing an application for a travel document?

In Texas, there are several steps to filing an application for a travel document. First, an individual must complete the Application for Travel Document (Form I-131) form, which is available on the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) website. The form must be completed in full and signed by the applicant. Next, the applicant must submit a copy of their passport or other travel documentation, along with any additional documents that are required by the USCIS. If the applicant is under the age of 18, a copy of their birth certificate must also be submitted. The applicant will then need to pay the filing fee for the application, which can be paid via check or money order. The filing fee is non-refundable, even if the application is denied. The application must then be filed with the USCIS office that handles immigration services in Texas. The USCIS will then review the application and make a decision on whether or not to approve the travel document. If approved, the applicant will be notified by mail. Once the travel document is issued, the applicant can use it to travel internationally. The document is valid for one year and must be renewed before the expiration date.
