PS, to clarify, typically DS 5504 only indicates lettered printing errors for things like name/address. You should attached a signed document indicating that the picture is crooked and split into different layers and an updated passport photo. This will be processed automatically as expedited. Alternatively, you can visit a regional processing agency to do the above if you are near one.
