    My scenario is for an expedited renewal and express shipping both ways . Application shipped to the PA office from CA L.A area.
    2/26- Mailed check and application via "Express" shipping at post office
    3/04- they confirmed receipt of app
    3/05- check was cashed
    3/17- I received notification that app was "in process"
    3/19- I received notification that passport shipped and another that it was approved (in that order)
    3/22- Received 🥳 (received from NH office)
    The comments helped me so I'm sharing my experience 😊. Good luck! 🍀🤞

    There are a LOT of shady companies out there that state they will expedite your passport. The only way they can help is to review your information and make sure it is correct. Other than that you can expedite right on the government website just as quickly as they can help. Don't be scammed in to paying $500 - $1000 per passport for them to do almost nothing.

      You'll have to pay for the expedited service, but honestly I dont think that's enough time.

    I applied for a routine service which takes from 10 to 12 weeks and the day I applied was May 10th, 2021. Yesterday June 22nd, 2021 I have received and email saying that it's in process now. The problem is that I am planning to travel early in July around the 10th or the 15th, do you think I will receive by then? I am so nervous 🥺🥺 I've been planning for this trip since four years and just last month realized that my passport will expire. Hopefully, the processing time doesn't take that long, and be able to receive it as soon as possible so I can get to see my family before I start college in September🥺.
