New baby? Two forms come early.

The hospital usually helps with the birth certificate. After that, most parents need two more documents: a Social Security number for the baby, and a passport if you're traveling. Both start with a form.

People in this situation commonly file the forms below. Choose what applies to you — when in doubt, consult a licensed attorney.

Blank forms are always free from the agency that issues them. WhyFill charges a one-time fee to fill them in with you, in your language.
