Passport Card processing time

[faliqos]

Hi all,


Does anybody know the processing time for passport card? does it take the same processing time as the paper passport or it is faster.

In my experience, it is almost same as processing time for passport book

I applied for both together and the card (and returned naturalization certificate) came two days after the passport itself. However, at least one day of that was because they used overnight service for the passport and first class post for the card.

Look at my signature, on an expedited basis.- This is from NYC.

My passport card came on the same day as the naturalization certificate, almost a week later then my passport book. This is in the San Francisco area.

If you have a travel date, call National Passport Info center and let them know. This definitely will expedite the process.
