Ila said:Hi all,
Does anybody know a place in Atlanta where I can get US passport same day/24 hours? My interview is on Oct 19 and I have a trip 3 days later (with 3rd day falling on Saturday). If all goes well and I will be able to have same day Oath - I need to get passport done quickiest way possible.
I appreciate the response!

But you do need an appointment and an airline ticket or iternary to show you are travelling within 15 days of your appointment. I think they return you passport on the same day. Atleast, this what I have learnt others can prove me wrong.

This is what I am planning to do if I won't have time to get a passport here.

Hey Ila,Ila said:In my case, my national passport already has expired - I have been using US Permanent Resident Travel Document for a while now. And I am afraid that I will have to give it up together with green card during Oath (if they do it the same day). Of course, I have an option of telling the interviewer that I have trip planned to postpone the Oath ceremony, but am afraid to do so because it might take forever to get the Oath - don't want to loose that chance!
I found a place in Atlanta that does 24-hour service, but also want a guarantee...They charge quite a bit - so they have to be efficient....What a dilemma.....
