chadci Posted December 1, 2009 #1 Share Posted December 1, 2009 FYI I went ahead and ordered out passports less than 2 weeks ago. I just got notice that mine has already shipped. I was told 4-6 weeks and it should be in my hands within 3 weeks from the day I applied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted December 1, 2009 #2 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Glad to hear this worked out for you. Sometimes the turn around time depends on which location processes your passport and certainly the time of year. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deputybubba Posted December 1, 2009 #3 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Yea I paid extra for the expedited service and got it in under 2 weeks. I should have gone with the standard service and saved the $65, but you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My other half attempted to submit her application the same day but her birth cert was a copy and they would not accept it. Luckily she found the orginal copy in the filing cabinet so we went back and filed her's last week. It's not showing up online just yet but hopefully it'll turn quickly as well.

AntMarini Posted December 9, 2009 #6 Share Posted December 9, 2009 The very nice lady at the post office, told me to not bother with expediting our application, we had ours in hand in 10 days. Of course this was in June 2007. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chadci Posted December 9, 2009 Author #7 Share Posted December 9, 2009 We didn't ask for any of the extra services as we still have plenty of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we do take it with us it doesn't rain. If someone has concerns with the turn around time better to expedite it. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting, that's the same day she submitted hers. The website just says it's processing. I got an e-mail when mine was sent but it arrived the very next day.

I got an e-mail when mine was sent but it arrived the very next day. I registered our email addresses but never got an email... Mine was processed in Seattle WA, I live in Colorado. Maybe that's the difference??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
