US Passport Timeline

I applied for mine about a month ago in London.

They charged my credit card about two days later, and I got my passport 10 days after that.

firesan, Did you send in 2 separate checks to dept of state or 1 combined for you and your wife? The post office clerk asked me to write out 1 check for the 2 of us..wondering if that is normal

Thanks

Trying to get an idea of how long its taking to get the passport if applied within Philadelphia passport agency jurisdiction. Please post time lines regular processing or expedited. Thanks!

Feliz, congratulations. I didn't see your thread about your interview/oath, but I do know you were waiting for this impatiently - like most of us. :)
 
I applied for my Passport on Friday, June 26th, 2009. Here is what it said when I checked online:

If you applied for both a U.S. Passport Book and a U.S. Passport Card on the same application, the newly issued documents, as well as your returned citizenship evidence, may be mailed to you in separate packages at different times. Therefore, it is possible to receive 3 separate mailings; one with your returned citizenship evidence, one with your newly issued passport book, and one with your newly issued passport card. It is currently being processed.

Your passport application locator number is 31*******.

When you applied, you requested Expedite Service.

We are processing requests for Expedited Service, that includes overnight delivery to and from the Passport Agency, in about 2 to 3 weeks door-to-door. See our website for more information on current Processing Times.
If you are traveling within 7 days and have not received your passport and have further questions about the status of your application, you may e-mail or contact the National Passport Information Center with the above locator number. It will enable them to update you on the status of your application.
 
How much did it cost for application? Where there additional fee for expedite service?

Thanks..

Passports received together or separate?

Applied expedite passports for me and my wife together in 1 packet: do people generally receive them on the same day or separate?

Thanks
 
Generally, they are sent in separate mails. You will receive your PP and NC separately. Your wife will receive her PP and NC separately.

The fee to apply for both the passport book and the pasport card with expedited service is as follows:

You make a check to the Passport Application Acceptance Facility (In my case the Post Office) for $25
and
You make a check payable to the Department of State for $169.85 for expedited service

So you can expect to spend $194.85 if you decide to get both the passport book and card with expedited service. Hope this information helps you.
