Headed to New Hampshire for the week of the 4th and the Outer Banks in September I hear you! I really don't expect to set foot on a cruise ship (whether there are any going or not) for at least the balance of this year. I had actually submitted for my passport renewal thinking I might need it for an October cruise (14 day on Breakaway) but I cancelled that long ago and doubt very much that it will happen anyways. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pasto5 Posted July 5, 2020 #129 Share Posted July 5, 2020 We filed my granddaughter’s renewal in January. It just arrived 2 weeks ago from the Buffalo NY office. We were glad we couldn’t go anywhere with her since it took a ridiculously long amount of time 😬 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red-Sol Posted July 11, 2020 #133 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Just a quick update from me....My check for passport renewal was cashed on March 6th...and I did receive the new passport finally yesterday on July 10th. Really don't even have a use for it now...but still happy to have received it. If any of you are still waiting at least there's hope that they are starting to catch up on processing them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Update - back from AC and im happy to report still had fun despite the restrictions , followed the protocols. won a little money. everyone i saw was wearing a mask and following the guidelines (probably why NJ has such good covid numbers lately) I contacted my congressmen's office (gerry collony) on monday morning and they helped get my passport processed and it was waiting for me when i got home today. 😊 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buford T Justiice Posted August 19, 2020 #145 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Just another passport processing data point: I was planning on renewing my passport (Exp. July 2020) after our February 2020 cruise but delayed since there was no "life or death emergency" per Passport Services guidelines. Mailed application and old passport: June 15, 2020 Check cashed: 6/22/2020 Received new Passport: 8/19/2020 ... with an expiration date of August 2030.

retired714 Posted August 19, 2020 #146 Share Posted August 19, 2020 I sent my renewal in Feb 24th. About March 15th was when all the Passport Employees went home. They started processing Passports again about he beginning of June. I got my replacement June 24th. At the time the employees went back to work, there were over a million passport renewal and original applications backed up. They were processed (by hand) first in, first out. So they might still be taking a little more time than they usually do.Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
