My granddaughter is applying for a passport on Friday, June 4. How long
can we expect to wait for the passport? Anyone have recent experience?
Thanks.

MAN! That's a LOT faster than a renewal! We sent ours in April and
they cashed the checks on the 27th of April. Nothing yet! YIKES!

I would be contacting the location you sent the renewals to. Did you send it
certified, return receipt or any other record of sending it?

You can also go he
http://travel.state.gov/passport/sta...atus_2567.html to check the
status of the passport application.

More than a month with no passport is currently out of the time frames for
service. A couple of years ago during the great passport rush it was normal
but not now. My renewal from mailing to receiving both the new passport,
cashing the check and return of the cancelled old passport was just a little
over 3 weeks when I did it back in November but the web site still says 4-6
weeks as of today's date.

My renewal took only 2 weeks, but it took another week for my old
passport to be returned.
(Done roughly January of this year)

Thanks, Howie. It's good to hear from you. I have had some issues that
required surgery and may not yet be out of the woods. I hope to know
more about my latest MRI next Thursday. I know you've been spending
lots of time being a grampa, and that's probably the reason you haven't
been down my way. :-)
