Most US passports have a validity of ten years. US consulates and Department of State will sometimes issue a temporary or emergency passport for US citizens with urgent travel requirements or who have lost their passports while they were out of the US. Those temporary passports won't be accepted by USCIS as proof of US citizenship. You need a passport that was issued with a validity of at least five years. Look at the date your passport was issued and the date it expires. If it's at least five years then you're good to go.

I'm not a mathematician, but only if 20-11 = 5 or higher.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.
