If you owe child support but currently paying it can you get passport?

No. If you owe anything outstanding, even if you are currently paying you will be denied. My fiancee was denied a passport recently. He currently pays $1,500 a month in child support for four children. A lot of this is for back child support that he is trying to catch up on. Even though he has been making these payments for over 5 years, he was still denied a passport. We also didn't get back our application fee, so don't bother.
