This can be approached as locating the text using text localization algorithm such as Stroke width transformation or surf based localization. The connected components analysis can be performed to segment the text regions followed by which photo regions such as face photos gov't symbol will be removed. I have the text localization algorithm ready. I 'll be able to finish it in 2 days. please find below my expertise in image processing
