You may use Form DS-82 if your previous U.S. passport:
  Was issued when you were age 16 or older and 
  Was issued in the last 15 years and 
  Is undamaged and can be submitted with your application and 
  Was issued in your current name or you can document your legal name change 

Expedited Service
Add $60 for each application
Currently, the U.S. passport card is not eligible for Expedited Service.  
Note: An application for a passport book and a passport card may be expedited, 
but the $60 fee will only serve to expedite the book at this time.  The pending 
production of your passport card, will not serve to delay the issuance and 
delivery of your passport book or the return of your citizenship evidence.

Overnight Delivery
For any service (first-time application, renewal, additional pages, name change) 
to receive your passport as soon as possible, we strongly suggest that you 
arrange overnight delivery service for:

provider for fees)
                            AND
    2. Returning your passport to you (Add $14.85 for each application)

    NOTE: Your overnight delivery service provider must be capable of delivery 
to a P.O. Box.
