Best Answer

Yes, your criminal status does not enter into whether you can be issued one or not. HOWEVER - your felon status may cause the court to restrict your travel and the use of it.

ADDITIONALLY: the prison authorities who have control over your mail may administratively restrict your ability to contact the US Passport Office.
