Got my expedited renewal passport in about a 1 week turnaround. Original passport was mailed the day after, but I never received it. It's been over 3 weeks now. US Passport Agency says call the post office it was mailed from and see if they can locate it. I'm calling tomorrow and hoping for the best, but not holding my breath.
Anyone here dealt with a lost original passport on the mail back? Pretty disappointing as I have a 10 year Chinese visa with 7 years remaining I'd really prefer to not have to get another one of.
