My husband's passport that was renewed one week later than mine in January 2023 has shipped (he received an email notification) and he did not pay for expedited. Mine is still showing as processing and I did pay for expedited. Crazy! I may have to drive up to Los Angeles to the passport office to renew mine in person (since it has now been over 14 weeks). I will wait until my husband's passport arrives and then plan my LA trip.
