    Default Can Your Passport Be Suspended for a Misdemeanor Bench Warrant for FTA

    I have a misdemeanor charge and another for missing my court date. Would a bench warrant for the FTA for my original misdemeanor charge ever cause my passport to be suspended? Would I still be able to renew my US passport from overseas at a consulate/embassy with a misdemeanor bench warrant? I know that with felony bench warrants, you can't obtain or renew passports, but what about my situation? My passport won't expire for a long time, but I worry about it possibly being suspended?

    That is good to know. Do passport suspensions/renewal rejections only happen with felony charges/convictions?
